On associative algebras, modules and twisted modules for vertex operator algebras

Abstract

We give a new construction of functors from the category of modules for the associative algebras $A_n(V)$ and $A_g(V)$ associated with a vertex operator algebra $V$, defined by Dong, Li and Mason, to the category of admissible $V$-modules and admissible twisted $V$-modules, respectively, using the method developed in the joint work \cite{HY1} with Y.-Z. Huang. The functors were first constructed by Dong, Li and Mason, but the importance of the new method, as in \cite{HY1}, is that we can apply the method to study objects without the commutator formula in the representation theory of vertex operator algebras.
