Abstract

The Whittaker module MψM_{\psi} and its quotient Whittaker module Lψ,ξL_{\psi, \xi} for the twisted affine Nappi-Witten Lie algebra H^4[τ]\widehat{H}_{4}[\tau] are studied. For nonsingular type, it is proved that if ξ0\xi\neq 0, then Lψ,ξL_{\psi,\xi} is irreducible and any irreducible Whittaker H^4[τ]\widehat{H}_{4}[\tau]-module of type ψ\psi with k{\bf k} acting as a non-zero scalar ξ\xi is isomorphic to Lψ,ξL_{\psi,\xi}. Furthermore, for ξ=0\xi=0, all Whittaker vectors of Lψ,0L_{\psi, 0} are completely determined. For singular type, the Whittaker vectors of Lψ,ξL_{\psi, \xi} with ξ0\xi \neq 0 are fully characterized.
