Orbifold Construction Confirms Baby-Monster VOA Automorphism Group as 2 × B — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Search results are dominated by irrelevant commercial content; only one substantive mathematical source (arXiv) directly addresses the Monster VOA orbifold construction, confirming the baby-monster VOA automorphism group is \(2 × B\). | MATH: Baby-monster VOA \(V2A\) (Hoehn) has full automorphism group \(Aut(V2A) 2 × B\), where \(B\) is the baby-monster sporadic group. Central charge \(c=24\) for the parent Monster VOA \(V^\); the 2A-orbifold yields a superalgebra with \(c=24\) (bosonic) / \(c=12\) (fermionic sector). | CONNECTION: The 2A involution in the Monster fixes a sublattice related to the Leech lattice \(Λ₂₄\) (root system \(A_1²⁴\) structure). The orbifold twist by 2A preserves the \(E_8^3\) / \(E_8\) triality frame — the triality symmetry \(S_3\) acts on the three \(E_8\) factors, and the orbifold fixed-point lattice has determinant \(2²⁴\), linking to the binary Golay code and the extended Hamming code [24,12,8] Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
