In this paper we study a series of vertex operator algebras of integer level associated to the affine Lie algebra $A_{\ell}^{(1)}$. These vertex operator algebras are constructed by using the explicit construction of certain singular…

A higher dimensional analogue of the notion of vertex algebra is formulated in terms of formal variable language with Borcherds' notion of $G$-vertex algebra as a motivation. Some examples are given and certain analogous duality properties…
We study quadratic algebras over a field $\textbf{k}$. We show that an $n$-generated PBW algebra $A$ has finite global dimension and polynomial growth \emph{iff} its Hilbert series is $H_A(z)= 1 /(1-z)^n$. Surprising amount can be said when…
Double Hurwitz numbers enumerating weighted $n$-sheeted branched coverings of the Riemann sphere or, equivalently, weighted paths in the Cayley graph of $S_n$ generated by transpositions are determined by an associated weight generating…
The polynomial deformations of the Witten extensions of the U(su(2)) and U(osp(1,2)) algebras are three generator algebras with normal ordering, admitting a two generator subalgebra. The modules and the representations of these algebras are…
In this article, we describe the endomorphism ring of a finitely generated progenerator module of a weighted Leavitt path algebra $L_{K}(E, w)$ of a finite vertex weighted graph $(E, w)$. Contrary to the case of Leavitt path algebras, we…
The algebra dual to Woronowicz's deformation of the 2-\-di\-men\-sion\-al Euclidean group is constructed. The same algebra is obtained from $SU_{q}(2)$ via contraction on both the group and algebra levels.
Let $W$ be a finite dimensional algebraic structure (e.g. an algebra) over a field $K$ of characteristic zero. We study forms of $W$ by using Deligne's Theory of symmetric monoidal categories. We construct a category $\mathcal{C}_W$, which…
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…
We introduce a class of Vertex Operator Algebras which arise at junctions of supersymmetric interfaces in ${\cal N}=4$ Super Yang Mills gauge theory. These vertex algebras satisfy non-trivial duality relations inherited from S-duality of…
We clarify the notion of the DS --- generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov --- reduction approach to classical ${\cal W}$-algebras. We first strengthen an earlier theorem which showed that an $sl(2)$ embedding ${\cal S}\subset {\cal G}$ can be…
String diagrams turn algebraic equations into topological moves that have recurring shapes, involving the sliding of one diagram past another. We individuate, at the root of this fact, the dual nature of polygraphs as presentations of…
We study the representation theory of the subregular W-algebra $\mathcal{W}^k(\mathfrak{so}_{2n+1},f_{sub})$ of type B and the principal W-superalgebra $\mathcal{W}^\ell(\mathfrak{osp}_{2|2n})$, which are related by an orthosymplectic…
The fact that certain non-linear $W_{2,s}$ algebras can be linearized by the inclusion of a spin-1 current can provide a simple way to realize $W_{2,s}$ algebras from linear $W_{1,2,s}$ algebras. In this paper, we first construct the…
We consider $AD$-type orbifolds of the triplet vertex algebras $\mathcal{W}(p)$ extending the well-known $c=1$ orbifolds of lattice vertex algebras. We study the structure of Zhu's algebras $A(\mathcal{W}(p)^{A_m})$ and…
We introduce a simple, self-dual, rational, and $C_2$-cofinite vertex operator algebra of CFT-type associated with a $\mathbb{Z}_k$-code for $k \ge 2$ based on the $\mathbb{Z}_k$-symmetry among the simple current modules for the parafermion…
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 show that all spin groups of non-definite, quinary quadratic forms over a field with characteristic 0 can be represented as 2 by 2 matrices with entries in an associated quaternion algebra. Over local and global fields, we further study…
