Abstract

We find the connection between the representation theory of vertex operator algebra $L(k \Lambda_0)$ and the irreducibility of tensor products ${\oV} \otimes L(k \Lambda_0)$. In the case of affine Lie algebra $A_1 ^{(1)}$, on every admissible rational level we construct a family of irreducible modules having infinite-dimensional weight spaces.
