Orbifolds, Hopf algebras, and the moonshine
Description
We describe the modular properties and fusion rules of holomorphic orbifold models by Hopf algebraic techniques, using the representation theory of the orbifold quantum group. We apply this theory to the construction of generalized Thompson series, and discuss its connections with Moonshine. (orig.)
