Superconformally covariant operators and super W algebras

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-22 v1

Abstract

We study superdifferential operators of order 2n+12n+1 which are covariant with respect to superconformal changes of coordinates on a compact super Riemann surface. We show that all such operators arise from super M\"obius covariant ones. A canonical matrix representation is presented and applications to classical super W algebras are discussed.
