Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and ${P_n=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]}$ the polynomial ring. Any $K$-derivation $D$ on $P_n$ is of the form ${ D=\sum_{i=1}^n f_i(x_1,\ldots,x_n)\frac{\partial}{\partial x_i} },$ where…

We prove that the relative commutant of a diffuse von Neumann subalgebra in a hyperbolic group von Neumann algebra is always injective. It follows that any non-injective subfactor in a hyperbolic group von Neumann algebra is non-Gamma and…
The universal $2$-parameter vertex algebra $W_{\infty}$ of type $W(2,3,4,\dots)$ serves as a classifying object for vertex algebras of type $W(2,3,\dots,N)$ for some $N$ in the sense that under mild hypothesis, all such vertex algebras…
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 $\mathfrak F$ be a saturated formation of soluble Lie algebras over a field $F$ of characteristic $p > 0$ and let ${\mathbb F}_p$ denote the field of $p$ elements. Let $(L,[p])$ be a restricted Lie algebra over $F$ with…
A weight module of a basic Lie superalgebra is called finite if all of its weight spaces are finite dimensional, and it is called bounded if there is a uniform bound on the dimension of a weight space. The minimum bound is called the degree…
We analyze the structure of the family of quadratic superalgebras, introduced in J Phys A 44(23):235205 (2011), for the quadatic deformations of $N = 1$ space-time conformal supersymmetry. We characterize in particular the `zero-step'…
We study the Weyl groups of hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebras of `over-extended' type and ranks 3, 4, 6 and 10, which are intimately linked with the four normed division algebras K=R,C,H,O, respectively. A crucial role is played by integral…
We consider graded rings $R$ generated by $n$ homogeneous elements of positive integer degrees $w_1, \ldots, w_n$ that have least common multiple $d$. We show that for every integer $k \geq \max(1, n-2)$, the $kd$th Veronese subring…
We perform a nonrelativistic contraction of N-extended Poincare superalgebra with internal symmetry U(N) and general set of N(N-1) real central charges. We show that for even N=2k and particular choice of the dependence of Z_{ij} on light…
Structure of certain simple $\mathcal{W}$-algebras assocated with the Deligne exceptional Lie algebras and non-admissible levels are described as the {\it simple current extensions} of certain vertex operator algebras. As an application,…
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…
We construct a quadratic basis of generators of matrix-extended $\mathcal{W}_{1+\infty}$ using a generalization of the Miura transformation. This makes it possible to conjecture a closed-form formula for the operator product expansions…
Finite W-algebras are certain associative algebras arising in Lie theory. Each W-algebra is constructed from a pair of a semisimple Lie algebra g (our base field is algebraically closed and of characteristic 0) and its nilpotent element e.…
In this paper we study finite W-algebras for basic classical superalgebras and Q(n) associated to the regular even nilpotent coadjoint orbits. We prove that this algebra satisfies the Amitsur-Levitzki identity and therefore all its…
The blob algebra is a finite-dimensional quotient of the Hecke algebra of type $B$ which is almost always quasi-hereditary. We construct the indecomposable tilting modules for the blob algebra over a field of characteristic $0$ in the…

The center of a semisimple Lie algebra can be described as the algebra of W-invariant functions on the dual of the Cartan subalgebra. The centers of many Lie superalgebras have a similar description, but the defining equivalence relation on…
