abstract

In this paper, we construct the associated vertex operator algebras for all $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories of rank one. We give a uniform presentation through free-field realizations, which turns out to be a particularly suitable framework for this task. The elementary building blocks of the construction are dictated by the low energy degrees of freedom on the Higgs branch, which are well understood for rank-one theories. We further analyze the interplay between Higgs and Coulomb data on the moduli space of vacua, which tightly constrain the overall structure of the free field realizations. Our results suggest a plausible bottom-up classification scheme for low-rank SCFTs incorporating vertex algebra techniques.

  1. Higgsless Lagrangian SCFTs and Strongly Finite VOAs

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Higgsless Lagrangian N=2 SCFTs are sparse (free vectors, one SO/USp quiver family, three sporadics); the VOAs of two sporadics are strongly finite and logarithmic.

  2. Argyres-Douglas Theories, Macdonald Indices and Arc Space of Zhu Algebra

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The MacDonald index of (A1, D_{2n+1}) Argyres-Douglas theories is conjectured to be a closed q,t product-sum, and the refined character of a strongly finitely generated VOA is proven to equal the arc-space Hilbert ser...

  3. Mirror symmetry for 4d $A_1$ class-$\mathcal{S}$ theories: modularity, defects and Coulomb branch

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A conjectured 4d mirror symmetry for A1 class-S theories matches simple modules of the Higgs-branch VOA to fixed manifolds of the Hitchin Coulomb branch, with conformal weights and modular Jordan types fixed by moment...
