Automorphism groups and uniqueness of holomorphic vertex operator algebras of central charge $24$ (2203.15992v3)

Abstract: We describe the automorphism groups of all holomorphic vertex operator algebras of central charge $24$ with non-trivial weight one Lie algebras by using their constructions as simple current extensions. We also confirm a conjecture of G. H\"ohn on the numbers of holomorphic vertex operator algebras of central charge $24$ obtained as inequivalent simple current extensions of certain vertex operator algebras, which gives another proof of the uniqueness of holomorphic vertex operator algebras of central charge $24$ with non-trivial weight one Lie algebras.
