A remark on ${\mathbb Z}_p$-orbifold constructions of the Moonshine vertex operator algebra (1705.09022v4)

Abstract: For $p = 3,5,7,13$, we consider a ${\mathbb Z}p$-orbifold construction of the Moonshine vertex operator algebra $V^\natural$. We show that the vertex operator algebra obtained by the ${\mathbb Z}_p$-orbifold construction on the Leech lattice vertex operator algebra $V\Lambda$ and a lift of a fixed-point-free isometry of order $p$ is isomorphic to the Moonshine vertex operator algebra $V^\natural$. We also describe the relationship between those ${\mathbb Z}_p$-orbifold constructions and the ${\mathbb Z}_2$-orbifold construction in a uniform manner. In Appendix, we give a characterization of the Moonshine vertex operator algebra $V^\natural$ by two mutually orthogonal Ising vectors.
