abstract
We classify all non-invertible Kramers-Wannier duality defects in the $E_8$ lattice Vertex Operator Algebra (i.e. the chiral $(E_8)_1$ WZW model) coming from $\mathbb{Z}_m$ symmetries. We illustrate how these defects are systematically obtainable as $\mathbb{Z}_2$ twists of invariant sub-VOAs, compute defect partition functions for small $m$, and verify our results against other techniques. Throughout, we focus on taking a physical perspective and highlight the important moving pieces involved in the calculations. Kac's theorem for finite automorphisms of Lie algebras and contemporary results on holomorphic VOAs play a role. We also provide a perspective from the point of view of (2+1)d Topological Field Theory and provide a rigorous proof that all corresponding Tambara-Yamagami actions on holomorphic VOAs can be obtained in this manner. We include a list of directions for future studies.

SymSETs and self-dualities under gauging non-invertible symmetries
A new SymSET-based construction shows that changing symmetry fractionalization classes can change fusion rules of self-duality defects under non-invertible gauging, yielding new fusion categories such as Rep D16 and Rep SD16.

Vertex algebras, topological defects, and Moonshine
Duality defects in the Monster module have an explicit McKay-Thompson formula, and Conway-module defects preserving the N=1 superconformal algebra induce Leech-lattice endomorphisms.
