摘要
In this paper, we introduce a notion of g-twisted restricted conformal block on the three-pointed twisted projective line x : C -> P1 associated with an untwisted module M1 and the bottom levels of two g-twisted modules M2 and M3 over a vertex operator algebra V. We show that the space of twisted restricted conformal blocks is isomorphic to the space of gtwisted (restricted) correlation functions defined by the same datum and to the space of intertwining operators among these twisted modules. As an application, we derive a twisted version of the Fusion Rules Theorem. (c) 2025 Elsevier Inc.
