We shall first present an explicit realization of the simple $N=4$ superconformal vertex algebra $L_{c} ^{N=4}$ with central charge $c=-9$. This vertex superalgebra is realized inside of the $ b c \beta \gamma $ system and contains a…

Casimir W-algebras are shown to exist in such a way that the conformal spins of primary(generating) fields coincide with the orders of independent Casimir operators. We show here that this coincidence can be extended further to the case…

We show that the coset ^sl(2)+^sl(2)/^sl(2) is a quantum Hamiltonian reduction of the exceptional affine Lie superalgebra ^D(2|1;\alpha) and that the corresponding W algebra is the commutant of the U_{q}D(2|1;\alpha) quantum group.

We construct superconformal mechanics with $N=3$ and $N=4$ supersymmetries that were inspired by analogies with the supersymmetric Schwarzian mechanics. The Schwarzian, being another system with superconformal symmetry, provides insight…

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,…

We use AGT correspondence between N=2 SUSY Yang-Mills theory on ${\mathbb R}^4/{\mathbb Z}_2$ and two-dimensional CFT model with the algebra $ {\cal H} \oplus \hat{sl}(2)_2 \oplus \text{NSR}$ to obtain the explicit expressions for 4-point…

Recently it has been discovered that the W-algebras (orbifold of) WD_n can be defined even for negative integers n by an analytic continuation of their coupling constants. In this letter we shall argue that also the algebras WA_{-n-1} can…

This paper consists of two parts. In the first part, we prove that when $\mathfrak{g}$ is a simple basic Lie superalgebra with a principal odd nilpotent element $f$, the W-algebra $W^k(\mathfrak{g}, F)$ for $F=-\frac{1}{2}[f,f]$ is…

We study a deformed $su(m|n)$ algebra on a quantum superspace. Some interesting aspects of the deformed algebra are shown. As an application of the deformed algebra we construct a deformed superconformal algebra. {}From the deformed…

We consider the problem of computing N=2 superconformal block functions. We argue that the Kazama-Suzuki coset realization of N=2 superconformal algebra in terms of the affine sl(2) algebra provides relations between N=2 and affine sl(2)…

We investigate the coset structures which appear in the dimensional reduction of supergravity theories. Especially we investigate how to recognize the global symmetry groups if the coset is non-split. As an example we apply our analysis to…

We review some basic features of the Lie-algebraic classification of W-algebras and related integrable hierarchies in 1+1 dimensions, pointing out the role of affine Lie algebras. We emphasize that the supersymmetric extensions of the above…

In this paper we study the diagonal cosets of the non-compact H4 WZW model. Generalising earlier work by Antoniadis and Obers, we provide an exact world-sheet description for several families of non-maximally symmetric gravitational plane…

Six-dimensional conformal field theories with $(2,0)$ supersymmetry are shown to possess a protected sector of operators and observables that are isomorphic to a two-dimensional chiral algebra. We argue that the chiral algebra associated to…

Cylindrical Algebraic Decomposition (CAD) algorithms typically produce a decomposition adapted to a finite family of semi-algebraic sets $\mathcal{F}$ (i.e. every member of $\mathcal{F}$ is a union of cells). Different algorithms may…

Using bootstrap methods, we provide evidence for the existence of a non-linear W-algebra, denoted $W_\infty^\text{s,s}$, which contains the small N= 4 super Virasoro algebra and features an infinite tower of additional generators, organized…

We construct the nonlinear $N=2$ super-$W_3^{(2)}$ algebra with an arbitrary central charge at the classical level in the framework of Polyakov "soldering" procedure. It contains two non-intersecting subalgebras: $N=2$ superconformal…

We show that quantum Casimir W-algebras truncate at degenerate values of the central charge c to a smaller algebra if the rank is high enough: Choosing a suitable parametrization of the central charge in terms of the rank of the underlying…

The local Sugawara constructions of the "small" N=4 SCA in terms of supercurrents of N=2 extensions of the affinization of the sl(2|1) and sl(3) algebras are investigated. The associated super mKdV type hierarchies induced by N=4 SKdV ones…

A manifestly $N=2$ supersymmetric coset formalism is introduced to describe integrable hierarchies. It is applied to analyze the super-NLS equation. It possesses an $N=2$ symmetry since it can be obtained from a manifest $N=2$ coset algebra…
