Abstract

We present an extension of the trace of a vertex operator and explain a representation-theoretic interpretation of the trace. Specifically, we consider a twist of the vertex operator with infinitely many Casimir operators and compute its trace as a character formula. To do this, we define the Fock space of infinite level \mathfrakF. Then, we prove a duality between \mathfrakgl and \mathfraka=\widehat\mathfrakgl of Howe type, which provides a decomposition of \mathfrakF into irreducible representations with joint highest weight vector for \mathfrakgl and \mathfraka. The decomposition of the Fock space \mathfrakF into highest weight representations provides a method to calculate and interpret the extended trace.
