Taormina, A., & Wendland, K. (2020). The Conway Moonshine Module is a Reflected K3 Theory. Advances in Theoretical and Mathematical Physics, 24(5), 1247-1323. https://doi.org/10.4310/atmp.2020.v24.n5.a6

Recently, Duncan and Mack-Crane established an isomorphism, as Virasoro modules at central charges c = 12, between the space of states of the Conway Moonshine Module and the space of states of a special K3 theory that was extensively studied some tim...

SU(2) channels the cancellation of K3 BPS states (2020)
Journal Article
Taormina, A., & Wendland, K. (2020). SU(2) channels the cancellation of K3 BPS states. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020(04), Article 184. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep04%282020%29184

The conformal field theoretic elliptic genus, an invariant for N = (2, 2) superconformal field theories, counts the BPS states in any such theory with signs, according to their bosonic or fermionic nature. For K3 theories, this invariant is the sourc... Read More about SU(2) channels the cancellation of K3 BPS states.
