Braided Tensor Categories related to Bp\mathcal{B}_p Vertex Algebras

preprint2019arXivOpen access

Abstract

The Bp\mathcal{B}_p-algebras are a family of vertex operator algebras parameterized by p∈Z≥2p\in \mathbb Z_{\geq 2}. They are important examples of logarithmic CFTs and appear as chiral algebras of type (A1,A2p−3)(A_1, A_{2p-3}) Argyres-Douglas theories. The first member of this series, the B2\mathcal{B}_2-algebra, are the well-known symplectic bosons also often called the βγβγ vertex operator algebra. We study categories related to the Bp\mathcal{B}_p vertex operator algebras using their conjectural relation to unrolled restricted quantum groups of sl2\mathfrak{sl}_2. These categories are braided, rigid and non semi-simple tensor categories. We list their simple and projective objects, their tensor products and their Hopf links. The latter are successfully compared to modular data of characters thus confirming a proposed Verlinde formula of David Ridout and the second author.
