We apply results from the geometry of nilpotent orbits and nilpotent Slodowy slices, together with modularity and asymptotic analysis of characters, to prove many new isomorphisms between affine W-algebras and affine Kac-Moody vertex…
We study general properties of quantisations of Slodowy slices and discuss in detail the case of the minimal nilpotent orbit. Associated varieties of related primitive ideals of U(g) are determined, in the general case, and the de Vos-van…
We give a simple description of the closure of the nilpotent orbits appearing as associated varieties of admissible affine vertex algebras in terms of primitive ideals.
We show that sheet closures appear as associated varieties of affine vertex algebras. Further, we give new examples of non-admissible affine vertex algebras whose associated variety is contained in the nilpotent cone. We also prove some…
We study the vertex algebras associated with modular invariant representations of affine Kac-Moody algebras at fractional levels, whose simple highest weight modules are classified by Joseph's characteristic varieties. We show that an…
We explicitly construct, in terms of Gelfand--Tsetlin tableaux, a new family of simple positive energy representations for the simple affine vertex algebra V_k(sl_{n+1}) in the minimal nilpotent orbit of sl_{n+1}. These representations are…
We extend the notion of semi-infinite cohomology of Lie algebras to include cases where the Lie algebra does not admit a semi-infinite structure but satisfies a mild condition. Our construction clarifies the definition of affine W-algebras…
In the context of affine complex Kac-Moody algebras, we define the meaning of nilpotent orbits under the adjoint action of the maximal Kac-Moody group. We also give a parameterization of nilpotent orbits of $\mathfrak{sl}_n^{(1)}(\mathbb…
Given a pair of nilpotent orbits in a simple Lie algebra, one can associate a pair of vertex algebras called affine W-algebras. Under some compatibility conditions on these orbits, we prove that one of these W-algebras can be obtained as…
First, we prove the Kac-Wakimoto conjecture on modular invariance of characters of exceptional affine W-algebras. In fact more generally we prove modular invariance of characters of all lisse W-algebras obtained through Hamiltonian…
The aim of this paper is to extend the theory of standard subalgebras of finite dimensional simple Lie algebras to infinite dimensional Lie algebras. We construct and characterize a class of standard subalgebras of affine Kac-Moody algebra.
We introduce the partial reductions and inverse Hamiltonian reductions between affine $\mathcal{W}$-algebras along the closure relations of associated nilpotent orbits in the case of $\mathfrak{sl}_4$, fulfilling all the missing…
We construct a family of potentially quasi-lisse (non-rational) vertex algebras, denoted by $\mathcal{C}_p$, $p \geq 2$, which are closely related to the vertex algebra of chiral differential operators on $SL(2)$ at level $-2+\frac{1}{p}$.…
We formulate and prove examples of a conjecture which describes the W-algebras in type A as successive quantum Hamiltonian reductions of affine vertex algebras associated with several hook-type nilpotent orbits. This implies that the affine…
First, we establish the relation between the associated varieties of modules over Kac-Moody algebras \hat{g} and those over affine W-algebras. Second, we prove the Feigin-Frenkel conjecture on the singular supports of G-integrable…
We study modularity of the characters of a vertex (super)algebra equipped with a family of conformal structures. Along the way we introduce the notions of rationality and cofiniteness relative to such a family. We apply the results to…
In recent years, the finite W-algebras associated to a semisimple Lie algebra and its nilpotent element have been studied intensively from different viewpoints. In this lecture series, we shall present some basic constructions, connections,…
It is proved that the regularity of parafermion vertex operator algebras associated to integrable highest weight modules for affine Kac-Moody algebra A_1^{(1)} implies the C_2-cofiniteness of parafermion vertex operator algebras associated…
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,…
In this paper, we introduce and study two cyclotomic level maps defined respectively on the set of nilpotent orbits $\underline{\mathcal{N}}$ in a complex semi-simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and the set of conjugacy classes…
