Abstract
We consider $AD$-type orbifolds of the triplet vertex algebras $\mathcal{W}(p)$ extending the well-known $c=1$ orbifolds of lattice vertex algebras. We study the structure of Zhu's algebras $A(\mathcal{W}(p)^{A_m})$ and $A(\mathcal{W}(p)^{D_m})$, where $A_m$ and $D_m$ are cyclic and dihedral groups, respectively. A combinatorial algorithm for classification of irreducible $\mathcal{W}(p)^\Gamma$-modules is developed, which relies on a family of constant term identities and properties of certain polynomials based on constant terms. All these properties can be checked for small values of $m$ and $p$ with a computer software. As a result, we argue that if certain constant term properties hold, the irreducible modules constructed in [Commun. Contemp. Math. 15 (2013), 1350028, 30 pages; Internat. J. Math. 25 (2014), 1450001, 34 pages] provide a complete list of irreducible $\mathcal{W}(p)^{A_m}$ and $\mathcal{W}(p)^{D_m}$-modules. This paper is a continuation of our previous work on the $ADE$ subalgebras of the triplet vertex algebra $\mathcal{W}(p)$.

Key words: $C_{2}$-cofiniteness, triplet vertex algebra, orbifold subalgebra, constant term identities.
