We present an algebraic approach to string theory, using a Hamiltonian reduction of N=2 WZW models. An embedding of sl(1|2) in a Lie superalgebra determines a niltopent subalgebra. Chirally gauging this subalgebra in the corresponding WZW…

W-algebras are constructed via quantum Hamiltonian reduction associated with a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and an $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$-embedding into $\mathfrak{g}$. We derive correspondences among correlation functions of theories having…

We construct explicitly strong generators of the affine $\mathcal{W}$-algebra $\mathcal{W}^{K-N}(\mathfrak{sl}_N, f_{sub})$ of subregular type $A$. Moreover, we are able to describe the OPEs between them at critical level. We also give a…

A family of vertex algebras whose universal Verma modules coincide with the cohomology of affine Laumon spaces is found. This result is based on an explicit expression for the generating function of Poincare polynomials of these spaces.…

Let $\mathfrak p$ be a proper parabolic subalgebra of a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. Writing $\mathfrak p=\mathfrak r\oplus \mathfrak m$, with $\mathfrak r$ being the Levi factor of $\mathfrak p$ and $\mathfrak m$ the nilpotent radical…

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…

We construct N=2 affine current algebras for the superalgebras sl(n|n-1)^{(1)} in terms of N=2 supercurrents subjected to nonlinear constraints and discuss the general procedure of the hamiltonian reduction in N=2 superspace at the…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a real semisimple Lie algebra with Iwasawa decomposition $\mathfrak{k} \oplus \mathfrak{a} \oplus \mathfrak{n}$. We show that, except for some explicit exceptional cases, every derivation of the nilpotent subalgebra…

We propose a series of new subalgebras of the $W_{1+\infty}$ algebra parametrized by polynomials $p(w)$, and study their quasifinite representations. We also investigate the relation between such subalgebras and the…

We classify the subalgebras of the real forms the complex linear algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_3(\mathbb{C})$, namely the real special linear algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_3(\mathbb{R})$, the special unitary algebra $\mathfrak{su}(3)$, and the…

The quantum toroidal algebra of $gl_1$ provides many deformed W-algebras associated with (super) Lie algebras of type A. The recent work by Gaiotto and Rapcak suggests that a wider class of deformed W-algebras including non-principal cases…

For any $\mathbf{a}=(a_1,\dots,a_n)\in \mathbb{C}^n$, we introduce a Whittaker category $\mathcal{H}_{\mathbf{a}}$ whose objects are $\mathfrak{sl}_{n+1}$-modules $M$ such that $e_{0i}-a_i$ acts locally nilpotently on $M$ for all $i \in…

In this article, the Virasoro-type reduction and the corresponding inverse reductions are established for W-algebras associated with classical Lie type and nilpotent orbits of height two. Moreover, these results are lifted to the universal…

We use the newly developed technique of inverse quantum hamiltonian reduction to investigate the representation theory of the simple affine vertex algebra $\mathsf{A}_{2}(\mathsf{u},2)$ associated to $\mathfrak{sl}_{3}$ at level $\mathsf{k}…

A unified description of the relationship between the Hamiltonian structure of a large class of integrable hierarchies of equations and W-algebras is discussed. The main result is an explicit formula showing that the former can be…

We investigate whether there are unitary families of W-algebras with spin one fields in the natural example of the Feigin-Semikhatov W^(2)_n-algebra. This algebra is conjecturally a quantum Hamiltonian reduction corresponding to a…

Possible irreducible holonomy algebras $\g\subset\sp(2m,\Real)$ of odd Riemannian supermanifolds and irreducible subalgebras $\g\subset\gl(n,\Real)$ with non-trivial first skew-symmetric prolongations are classified. An approach to the…

If $A$ is a subset of the set of reflections of a finite Coxeter group $W$, we define a sub-${\mathbb{Z}}$-module ${\mathcal{D}}_A(W)$ of the group algebra ${\mathbb{Z}} W$. We provide examples where this submodule is a subalgebra. This…

We discuss the $N=2$ super $W$ algebras from the hamiltonian reduction of affine Lie superalgebras $A(n|n-1)^{(1)}$ and $A(n|n)^{(1)}$. From the quantum hamiltonian reduction of $A(n|n-1)^{(1)}$ we get the free field realization of $N=2$…

The structure of Hamiltonian reductions of the Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten (WZNW) theory by first class Kac-Moody constraints is analyzed in detail. Lie algebraic conditions are given for ensuring the presence of exact integrability,…
