Haagerup Symmetry in $({E}_{8}{)}_{1}$?

Author(s): Jan Albert, Yamato Honda, Justin Kaidi, and Yunqin Zheng We suggest that the chiral $({\mathfrak{e}}_{8}{)}_{1}$ theory—in many senses the simplest vertex operator algebra—may have Haagerup symmetry ${\mathcal{H}}_{i}$ for $i=1$, 2, 3. Likewise, we suggest that the nonchiral $({E}_{8}{)}_{1}$ Wess-Zumino-Witten model may have ${\mathcal{H}}_{i}×{\mathcal{… [Phys. Rev. Lett. 136, 091603] Published Mon Mar 02, 2026
