Abstract

By using the known operator product expansions (OPEs) between the lowest 1616 higher spin currents of spins (1,32,32,32,32,2,2,2,2,2,2,52,52,52,52,3)(1, \frac{3}{2}, \frac{3}{2}, \frac{3}{2}, \frac{3}{2}, 2,2,2,2,2,2, \frac{5}{2}, \frac{5}{2}, \frac{5}{2}, \frac{5}{2}, 3) in an extension of the large N=4{\cal N}=4 linear superconformal algebra, one determines the OPEs between the lowest 1616 higher spin currents in an extension of the large N=4{\cal N}=4 nonlinear superconformal algebra for generic NN and kk. The Wolf space coset contains the group G=SU(N+2)G =SU(N+2) and the affine Kac-Moody spin 11 current has the level kk. The next 1616 higher spin currents of spins (2,52,52,52,52,3,3,3,3,3,3,72,72,72,72,4)(2,\frac{5}{2}, \frac{5}{2}, \frac{5}{2}, \frac{5}{2}, 3,3,3,3,3,3, \frac{7}{2}, \frac{7}{2}, \frac{7}{2}, \frac{7}{2},4) arise in the above OPEs. The most general lowest higher spin 22 current in this multiplet can be determined in terms of affine Kac-Moody spin 12,1\frac{1}{2}, 1 currents. By careful analysis of the zero mode (higher spin) eigenvalue equations, the three-point functions of bosonic higher spin 2,3,42, 3, 4 currents with two scalars are obtained for finite NN and kk. Furthermore, we also analyze the three-point functions of bosonic higher spin 2,3,42, 3, 4 currents in the extension of the large N=4{\cal N}=4 linear superconformal algebra. It turns out that the three-point functions of higher spin 2,32,3 currents in the two cases are equal to each other at finite NN and kk. Under the large (N,k)(N,k) 't Hooft limit, the two descriptions for the three-point functions of higher spin 44 current coincide with each other. The higher spin extension of SO(4)SO(4) Knizhnik Bershadsky algebra is described.
