Conway Subgroup Symmetric Compactifications Redux
Zihni Kaan Baykara, Jeffrey A. Harvey
We extend the investigation of special toroidal compactifications of heterotic string theory for which the half-BPS states provide representations of subgroups of the Conway group.…
A Passion for Theoretical Physics: a special issue in memory of Peter G. O. Freund
Jeffrey A. Harvey, Emil J. Martinec, Rafael I. Nepomechie
This is a preface to A Passion for Theoretical Physics, a special issue collection of articles published in J. Phys. A in memory of Peter G. O. Freund.
Moonshine, Superconformal Symmetry, and Quantum Error Correction
Jeffrey A. Harvey, Gregory W. Moore
Special conformal field theories can have symmetry groups which are interesting sporadic finite simple groups. Famous examples include the Monster symmetry group of a two-di…
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 …
Galois Symmetry Induced by Hecke Relations in Rational Conformal Field Theory and Associated Modular Tensor Categories
Jeffrey A. Harvey, Yichen Hu, Yuxiao Wu
Hecke operators relate characters of rational conformal field theories (RCFTs) with different central charges, and extend the previously studied Galois symmetry of modular represen…
Ramanujan's influence on string theory, black holes and moonshine
Jeffrey A. Harvey
Ramanujan influenced many areas of mathematics, but his work on q-series, on the growth of coefficients of modular forms, and on mock modular forms stands out for its depth and bre…
