We develop a general theory of $W$-algebras in the context of supersymmetric vertex algebras. We describe the structure of $W$-algebras associated with odd nilpotent elements of Lie superalgebras in terms of their free generating sets. As…

Simplicity of universal minimal quantum affine W-algebras is studied. As an application, we find the values of the center, for which the vacuum module over a superconformal algebra is irreducible.

For a large class of finite W algebras, the defining relations of a Yangian are proved to be satisfied. Therefore such finite W algebras appear as realisations of Yangians. This result is useful to determine properties of such W algebra…

The complete structure of the Casimir ${\cal{W}\cal{A}}_{\it{N}}$ algebras are shown to exist in such a way that the Casimir ${\cal{W}\cal{A}}_{\it{N}}$ algebra is a kind of truncated type of $\cal{W}_{\infty}$ algebra both in the primary…

With a nilpotent element in a semisimple Lie algebra g one associates a finitely generated associative algebra W called a W-algebra of finite type. This algebra is obtained from the universal enveloping algebra U(g) by a certain Hamiltonian…

We show that one can construct a classical affine W-algebra via a classical BRST complex. This definition clarifies that classical affine W-algebras can be considered as quasi-classical limits of quantum affine W-algebras. We also give a…

Reductions of N-wave type equations related to simple Lie algebras and the hierarchy of their Hamiltonian structures are studied. The reduction group G_R is realized as a subgroup of the Weyl group of the corresponding algebra. Some of the…

The present survey results from the will to reconcile two approaches to quantum probabilities: one rather physical and coming directly from quantum mechanics, the other more algebraic. The second leading idea is to provide a unified picture…
