The CKLW strong-locality conjecture for strongly rational unitary vertex operator algebras

Claims Theorem 1.1: every simple unitary strongly rational VOA has polynomial energy bounds and is CKLW-strongly local, generating an irreducible conformal net AVA_V; moreover VV is completely unitary (all simple modules unitarizable, fusion forms positive), every unitary module is strongly integrable, AVA_V is completely rational, and the Carpi-Weiner-Xu functor is a braided unitary tensor equivalence Rep(V)≃Repf(AV)\mathrm{Rep}(V)\simeq\mathrm{Rep}^f(A_V). It does not treat non-rational or non-C2-cofinite unitary VOAs, so the general conjecture remains open.
