Abstract

W(a,b)W(a,b) and W(a,b;aˉ,bˉ)W(a,b;\bar{a},\bar{b}) algebras are deformations of bms3{\mathfrak{bms}_3} and bms4{\mathfrak{bms}_4} algebra respectively. We present an N=2\mathcal{N}=2 supersymmetric extension of W(a,b)W(a,b) and W(a,b;aˉ,bˉ)W(a,b;\bar{a},\bar{b}) algebra in presence of RR-symmetry generators that rotate the two supercharges. For W(a,b)W(a,b) our construction includes most generic central extensions of the algebra. In particular we find that N=2\mathcal{N}=2 bms3{\mathfrak{bms}_3} algebra admits a new central extension that has so far not been reported in the literature. For W(a,b;aˉ,bˉ)W(a,b;\bar{a},\bar{b}), we find that an infinite U(1)V×U(1)AU(1)_V \times U(1)_A extension of the algebra is not possible with linear and quadratic structure constants for generic values of the deformation parameters. This implies a similar constraint for U(1)V×U(1)AU(1)_V \times U(1)_A extension of N=2\mathcal{N}=2 bms4{\mathfrak{bms}_4} algebra.
