This work is motivated by and develops connections between several
branches of mathematics and physics--the theories of Lie algebras,
finite groups and modular functions in mathematics, and string
theory in physics. The first part of the book presents a new
mathematical theory of vertex operator algebras, the algebraic
counterpart of two-dimensional holomorphic conformal quantum field
theory. The remaining part constructs the Monster finite simple
group as the automorphism group of a very special vertex operator
algebra, called the "moonshine module" because of its relevance to
"monstrous moonshine."
