We give a proof of the recursive formula on the norm of Whittaker vector of the deformed Virasoro algebra, which is an analog of the one for the Virasoro Lie algebra proposed by Al. Zamolodchikov. Our formula gives a proof of the pure SU(2)…

For any positive integer $n$, let $A_n=\mathbb{C}[t_1,\dots,t_n]$, $W_n=\text{Der}(A_n)$ and $\Delta_n=\text{Span}\{\frac{\partial}{\partial{t_1}},\dots,\frac{\partial}{\partial{t_n}}\}$. Then $(W_n, \Delta_n)$ is a Whittaker pair. A…

In this paper, we consider the modules for the Heisenberg-Virasoro algebra and the W algebra $W(2,2)$. We determine the modules whose restriction to the Cartan subalgebra (modulo center) are free of rank $1$ for the two algebras. We also…

With the $\Omega$-operators for the Virasoro algebra \cite{BF} and the super Virasoro algebra in \cite{CL, CLL}, we get the $\Omega$-operators for the Ovsienko-Roger superalgebras in this paper and then use it to classify all simple…

We define a filtration of a standard Whittaker module over a complex semisimple Lie algebra and and establish its fundamental properties. Our filtration specialises to the Jantzen filtration of a Verma module for a certain choice of…

We consider the category of Whittaker modules for the Lie superalgebra $W_{m,n}$ of vector fields on $\mathbb{C}^{(m|n)}$. For any $\mathbf{a}\in \mathbb{C}^m$ we show the equivalence between the blocks $\Omega_{\mathbf…
