Abstract: Representations of vertex algebras of CohFT-type can be used to construct vector bundles of coinvariants and conformal blocks on moduli spaces of stable pointed curves. The name comes from the fact they define semisimple cohomological field theories. I’ll say something about why one may be interested in these bundles and their classes, and give some examples. This is about work with Chiara Damiolini and Nicola Tarasca.
