Abstract: | The chiral equivariant cohomology contains and generalizes the classical equivariant cohomology of a manifold M with an action of a compact Lie group G. For any simple G, there exist compact manifolds with the same classical equivariant cohomology, which can be distinguished by this invariant.
When M is a point, this cohomology is an interesting conformal vertex algebra whose structure is still mysterious. In this paper,
we scratch the surface of this object in the case G = SU(2). |
