Properties of four quintic theta functions are developed in parallel with those of the classical Jacobi null theta functions. The quintic theta functions are shown to satisfy analogues of Jacobi's quartic theta function identity and…

We give character formulae for the positive energy unitary irreducible representations of the N-extended D=4 conformal superalgebras su(2,2/N). Using these we also derive decompositions of long superfields as they descend to the unitarity…

The Weyl-Kac character formula gives a beautiful closed-form expression for the characters of integrable highest-weight modules of Kac-Moody algebras. It is not, however, a formula that is combinatorial in nature, obscuring positivity. In…

When we describe string propagation on non-compact or singular Calabi-Yau manifolds by CFT, continuous as well as discrete representations appear in the theory. These representations mix in an intricate way under the modular…

This paper continues the project of constructing the character formulae for the positive energy unitary irreducible representations of the N-extended D=4 conformal superalgebras su(2,2/N). In the first paper we gave the bare characters…

Recently a remarkable map between 4-dimensional superconformal field theories and vertex algebras has been constructed \cite{BLLPRV15}. This has lead to new insights in the theory of characters of vertex algebras. In particular it was…

We study N=4 supersymmetric quantum-mechanical many-body systems with M bosonic and 4M fermionic degrees of freedom. We also investigate the further restrictions of conformal and superconformal invariance. In particular, we construct…

We prove that the span of normalized characters of subprincipal admissible modules over an affine Lie algebra of subprincipal admissible level $k$ is $SL_2(\mathbf{Z})$-invariant and find the explicit modular transformation formula.

We construct almost holomorphic and holomorphic modular forms by considering theta series for quadratic forms of signature $(n-1,1)$. We include homogeneous and spherical polynomials in the definition of the theta series (generalizing a…

In this article, we review some aspects of logarithmic conformal field theories which can be inferred from the characters of irreducible submodules of indecomposable modules. We will mainly consider the W(2,2p-1,2p-1,2p-1) series of triplet…

This paper is an annotated list of transformation properties and identities satisfied by the four theta functions $\theta _1$, $\theta _2$, $\theta _3$, $\theta _4$ of one complex variable, presented in a ready-to-use form. An attempt is…

We introduce a new class of extended affine Lie algebras called Hamiltonian Extended Lie Algebras(HEALAs). They are so called because the corresponding derivation algebra is the classical Hamiltonian algebra. We classify the irreducible…

For a real reductive linear Lie group G, the space of Whittaker functions is the representation space induced from a non-degenerate unitary character of the Iwasawa nilpotent subgroup. Defined are the standard Whittaker (g,K)-modules, which…

Within the standard quantum mechanics a q-deformation of the simplest N=2 supersymmetry algebra is suggested. Resulting physical systems do not have conserved charges and degeneracies in the spectra. Instead, superpartner Hamiltonians are…

We provide a systematic approach to obtain formulas for characters and Kostant ${\mathfrak u}$-homology groups of the oscillator modules of the finite dimensional general linear and ortho-symplectic superalgebras, via Howe dualities for…

Proceeding from nonlinear realizations of the most general N=4, d=1 superconformal symmetry associated with the supergroup D(2,1;\alpha), we construct all known and two new off-shell N=4, d=1 supermultiplets as properly constrained N=4…

We compute the homology of the complexes of finite Verma modules over the annihilation superalgebra $\mathcal A(K'_{4})$, associated with the conformal superalgebra $K'_{4}$, obtained in \cite{K4}. We use the computation of the homology in…

We revisit the study of the multiplets of the conformal algebra in any dimension. The theory of highest weight representations is reviewed in the context of the Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand category of modules. The Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials…

The problem of finding all possible effective field theories for the quantum Hall effect is closely related to the problem of classifying all possible modular invariant partition functions for the algebra $u(1)^m$, as was argued recently by…
