Modular Products and Modules for Finite Groups

John F. R. Duncan, Jeffrey A. Harvey, Brandon C. Rayhaun

Motivated by the appearance of penumbral moonshine, and by evidence that penumbral moonshine enjoys an extensive relationship to generalized monstrous moonshine via infinite produc…

Two New Avatars of Moonshine for the Thompson Group

John F. R. Duncan, Jeffrey A. Harvey, Brandon C. Rayhaun

The Thompson sporadic group admits special relationships to modular forms of two kinds. On the one hand, last century's generalized moonshine for the monster equipped the Thompson…

An Overview of Penumbral Moonshine

John F. R. Duncan, Jeffrey A. Harvey, Brandon C. Rayhaun

As Mathieu moonshine is a special case of umbral moonshine, Thompson moonshine (in half-integral weight) is a special case of a family of similar relationships between finite group…

Conformal Field Theories with Sporadic Group Symmetry

Jin-Beom Bae, Jeffrey A. Harvey, Kimyeong Lee +2

The monster sporadic group is the automorphism group of a central charge vertex operator algebra (VOA) or meromorphic conformal field theory (CFT). In addition to its …

Attractive Strings and Five-Branes, Skew-Holomorphic Jacobi Forms and Moonshine

Miranda C. N. Cheng, John F. R. Duncan, Sarah M. Harrison +3

We show that certain BPS counting functions for both fundamental strings and strings arising from fivebranes wrapping divisors in Calabi--Yau threefolds naturally give rise to skew…

Traces of Singular Moduli and Moonshine for the Thompson Group

Jeffrey A. Harvey, Brandon C. Rayhaun

We describe a relationship between the representation theory of the Thompson sporadic group and a weakly holomorphic modular form of weight one-half that appears in work of Borcher…
