Abstract
Minimal BCOV theory is a classical field theory which describes a subclass of deformations of the category of perfect complexes on a Calabi-Yau variety. We compute minimal models for -algebras describing minimal BCOV theory and its variants on flat space and find that they give certain -extensions of the infinite-dimensional simple Lie superalgebra . We apply this computation to compare an action on an odd two-dimensional central extension of first discovered by Kac to an action of on a variant of minimal BCOV theory previously found by the authors.
