In this paper, we study the representation theory for the affine Lie algebra $\H$ associated to the Nappi-Witten model $H_{4}$. We classify all the irreducible highest weight modules of $\H$. Furthermore, we give a necessary and sufficient…

In this paper we continue the study of the superconformal index of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories of class $\mathcal{S}$ in the presence of surface defects. Our main result is the construction of an algebra of difference…

According to V. Kac and J. van de Leur, the superconformal algebras are the simple $\Z$-graded Lie superalgebras of growth one which contains the Witt algebra. We describe an explicit classification of all cuspidal modules over the known…

Three exceptional modular invariants of SU(4) exist at levels 4, 6 and 8. They can be obtained from appropriate conformal embeddings and the corresponding graphs have self-fusion. From these embeddings, or from their associated modular…

Modules over affine Lie superalgebras ${\cal G}$ are studied, in particular, for ${\cal G}=\hat{OSP(1,2)}$. It is shown that on studying Verma modules, much of the results in Kac-Moody algebra can be generalized to the super case. Of most…

A Pfaffian-type Murnaghan-Nakayama rule is derived for the Hecke-Clifford algebra $\mathcal{H}^c_n$ based on the Frobenius formula and vertex operators, and this leads to a combinatorial version via the tableaux realization of Schur's…

We give a combinatorial formula for the character of a finite-dimensional irreducible representation of the periplectic Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{p}(n)$. The character of irreducible module $L(\mu)$ is given by a cancellation-free…

We construct the finite dimensional simple integral modules for the (degenerate) affine Hecke-Clifford algebra (AHCA). Our construction includes an analogue of Zelevinsky's segment representations, a complete combinatorial description of…

We classify unitary highest weight modules with a given integral infinitesimal character for the real Lie algebras $\mathfrak{su}(p,q)$ and $\mathfrak{so}^*(2n)$. We treat both regular and singular cases. For $\mathfrak{su}(p,q)$ we…

We present ${\cal N}{=}\,4$ supersymmetric mechanics on $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds constructed within the Hamiltonian approach. The structure functions entering the supercharges and the Hamiltonian obey modified covariant…

The paper is devoted to real Hamiltonian forms of 2-dimensional Toda field theories related to exceptional simple Lie algebras, and to the spectral theory of the associated Lax operators. Real Hamiltonian forms are a special type of…

We develop the theory of $q$-characters for quantum affine superalgebras of type $A$ in connection with deformed Cartan matrices. To achieve this, we establish a Khoroshkin-Tolstoy-type multiplicative formula of the universal $R$-matrix of…

Let $C$ be a symmetrizable generalized Cartan Matrix, and $q$ an indeterminate. ${\fg}(C)$ is the Kac-Moody Lie algebra and $U=U_q({\fg}(C))$ the associated quantum enveloping algebra over $ k={\Bbb Q}(q)$. The quantum function algebra…

Antiunitary representations of Lie groups take values in the group of unitary and antiunitary operators on a Hilbert space H. In quantum physics, antiunitary operators implement time inversion or a PCT symmetry, and in the modular theory of…

We study the torus partition function of the SL(2,R)/U(1) SUSY gauged WZW model coupled to N=2 U(1) current. Starting from the path-integral formulation of the theory, we introduce an infra-red regularization which preserves good modular…

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…

Extending recent work of Kachru and Silverstein, we consider ``orbifolds'' of 4-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=4$ SU(n) super-Yang-Mills theories with respect to discrete subgroups of the SU(4) $R$-symmetry which act nontrivially on the gauge…

Unary theta functions have played a significant role in the theory of holomorphic modular forms and modular $L$-functions. A partial theta functions is defined analogously, but the sum is over part of the integer lattice. Such sums fail to…

Let ${\mathcal F}_\lambda(\mathbb{S}^n)$ be the space of tensor densities on $\mathbb{S}^n$ of degree $\lambda$. We consider this space as an induced module of the nonunitary spherical series of the group $\mathrm{SO}_0(n+1,1)$ and classify…

Ramanujan derived a sequence of even weight $2n$ quasimodular forms $U_{2n}(q)$ from derivatives of Jacobi's weight $3/2$ theta function. Using the generating function for this sequence, one can construct sequences of quasimodular forms of…
