Abstract

We give an explicit description for the weight three generator of the coset vertex operator algebra CL\sln^(l,0)L\sln^(1,0)(L\sln^(l+1,0))C_{L_{\widehat{\sl_{n}}}(l,0)\otimes L_{\widehat{\sl_{n}}}(1,0)}(L_{\widehat{\sl_{n}}}(l+1,0)), for n2,l1n\geq 2, l\geq 1. Furthermore, we prove that the commutant CL\sl3^(l,0)L\sl3^(1,0)(L\sl3^(l+1,0))C_{L_{\widehat{\sl_{3}}}(l,0)\otimes L_{\widehat{\sl_{3}}}(1,0)}(L_{\widehat{\sl_{3}}}(l+1,0)) is isomorphic to the \W\W-algebra \W3+l+3l+4(\sl3)\W_{-3+\frac{l+3}{l+4}}(\sl_3), which confirms the conjecture for the \sl3\sl_3 case that CLg^(l,0)Lg^(1,0)(Lg^(l+1,0))C_{L_{\widehat{\frak g}}(l,0)\otimes L_{\widehat{\frak g}}(1,0)}(L_{\widehat{\frak g}}(l+1,0)) is isomorphic to \Wh+l+hl+h+1(g)\W_{-h+\frac{l+h}{l+h+1}}(\frak g) for simply-laced Lie algebras g{\frak g} with its Coxeter number hh for a positive integer ll.
