We prove Feigin-Frenkel type dualities between subregular W-algebras of type A, B and principal W-superalgebras of type $\mathfrak{sl}(1|n), \mathfrak{osp}(2|2n)$. The type A case proves a conjecture of Feigin and Semikhatov. Let…

Trialities of $\mathcal{W}$-algebras are isomorphisms between the affine cosets of three different $\mathcal{W}$-(super)algebras, and were first conjectured in the physics literature by Gaiotto and Rap\v{c}\'ak. In this paper we prove…

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…

We study the representation theory of the Kazama-Suzuki coset vertex operator superalgebra associated with the pair of a complex simple Lie algebra and its Cartan subalgebra. In the case of type $A_{1}$, B.L. Feigin, A.M. Semikhatov, and…

Many ${\mathcal W}$-(super)algebras which are defined by the generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction are also known or expected to have coset realizations. For example, it was conjectured by Ito that the principal ${\mathcal W}$-superalgebra…

Categorical coset constructions are investigated and Kac-Wakimoto Hypothesis associated with pseudo unitary modular tensor categories is proved. In particular, the field identifications are obtained. These results are applied to the coset…

Based on the Kazama-Suzuki type coset construction and its inverse coset between the subregular $\mathcal{W}$-algebras for $\mathfrak{sl}_n$ and the principal $\mathcal{W}$-superalgebras for $\mathfrak{sl}_{1|n}$, we prove weight-wise…

We construct several quantum coset W-algebras, e.g. sl(2,R)/U(1) and sl(2,R)+sl(2,R) / sl(2,R), and argue that they are finitely nonfreely generated. Furthermore, we discuss in detail their role as unifying W-algebras of Casimir W-algebras.…

We prove the conjecture of Gaiotto and Rap\v{c}\'ak that the $Y$-algebras $Y_{L,M,N}[\psi]$ with one of the parameters $L,M,N$ zero, are simple one-parameter quotients of the universal two-parameter $\mathcal{W}_{1+\infty}$-algebra, and…

We refine a conjecture by Lehrer and Solomon on the structure of the Orlik-Solomon algebra of a finite Coxeter group $W$ and relate it to the descent algebra of $W$. As a result, we claim that both the group algebra of $W$, as well as the…
