A Note of W-algebra Realisations

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-22 v1

Abstract

We provide a general description of realisations of W--algebras in terms of smaller W--algebras and free fields. This is based on the definition of the W--algebra as the commutant of a set of screening charges. This is conjectured to be related to partial gauge-fixings in the Hamiltonian reduction model.
