In this paper we consider the structure of general quantum W-algebras. We introduce the notions of deformability, positive-definiteness, and reductivity of a W-algebra. We show that one can associate a reductive finite Lie algebra to each…
For a reductive Lie algebra g, its nilpotent element f and its faithful finite dimensional representation, we construct a Lax operator L(z) with coefficients in the quantum finite W-algebra W(g,f). We show that for the classical linear Lie…
We consider the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ of a simple, simply connected algebraic group over a field of large positive characteristic. For each nilpotent orbit $\mathcal{O} \subseteq \mathfrak{g}$ we choose a representative $e\in…
The purpose of this article is to investigate relations between W-superalgebras and integrable super-Hamiltonian systems. To this end, we introduce the generalized Drinfel'd-Sokolov (D-S) reduction associated to a Lie superalgebra $g$ and…
An elementary proof is given for the existence of infinite dimensional abelian subalgebras in quantum W-algebras. In suitable realizations these subalgebras define the conserved charges of various quantum integrable systems. We consider all…
Recently, a new generalized family of infinite-dimensional $ \widetilde{W} $ algebras, each associated with a particular element of a commutative subalgebra of the $ W_{1+\infty} $ algebra, was described. This paper provides a comprehensive…
Relaxing first-class constraint conditions in the usual Drinfeld-Sokolov Hamiltonian reduction leads, after symmetry fixing, to realizations of W algebras expressed in terms of all the J-current components. General results are given for G a…
A W-algebra is an associative algebra constructed from a semisimple Lie algebra and its nilpotent element. This paper concentrates on the study of 1-dimensional representations of these algebras. Under some conditions on a nilpotent element…

Simple, or Kleinian, singularities are classified by Dynkin diagrams of type ADE. Let g be the corresponding finite-dimensional Lie algebra, and W its Weyl group. The set of g-invariants in the basic representation of the affine Kac-Moody…
Let $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{gl}_{M|N}(\mathbb{k})$ be the general linear Lie superalgebra over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{k}$ of characteristic zero. Fix an arbitrary even nilpotent element $e$ in $\mathfrak{g}$ and let…
In this paper, we prove classical affine W-algebras associated to Lie superalgebras (W-superalgebras) can be constructed in two different ways: via affine classical Hamiltonian reductions and via taking quasi-classical limits of quantum…
Let $N$ be a minimax nilpotent torsion-free normal subgroup of a soluble group $G$ of finite rank, $R$ be a finitely generated commutative domain and $R*N$ be a crossed product of $R$ and $N$. In the paper we construct a correspondence…
We define a quantum version of Hamiltonian reduction by stages, producing a construction in type A for a quantum Hamiltonian reduction from the W-algebra $U(\mathfrak{g},e_1)$ to an algebra conjecturally isomorphic to $U(\mathfrak{g},e_2)$,…
The property of some finite W algebras to be the commutant of a particular subalgebra of a simple Lie algebra G is used to construct realizations of G. When G=so(4,2), unitary representations of the conformal and Poincare algebras are…
In Section 1 we review various equivalent definitions of a vertex algebra V. The main novelty here is the definition in terms of an indefinite integral of the lambda-bracket. In Section 2 we construct, in the most general framework, the Zhu…
The paper deals with weighted spaces $L_p^w(G)$ on a locally compact group G. If w is a positive measurable function on G then we define the space $L_p^w(G)$, $p\ge1$, as $L_p^w(G)=\{f:fw\in L_p(G)\}$. We consider weights such that these…
It is known that the semi-infinite cohomology spaces of the infinitely twisted nilpotent subalgebra in an affine Lie algebra $g$ with coefficients in an integrable simple module over the affine Lie algebra have a base enumerated by elements…
We classify the finite dimensional irreducible representations with integral central character of finite $W$-algebras $U(\mathfrak g,e)$ associated to standard Levi nilpotent orbits in classical Lie algebras of types B and C. This…
In this paper, we establish a general criterion for good pairs, namely pairs consisting of a nilpotent orbit and an even good grading in a simple Lie algebra, which guarantees the existence of a quantum Hamiltonian reduction between…
