In this paper we construct an "abstract Fock space" for general Lie types that serves as a generalisation of the infinite wedge $q$-Fock space familiar in type $A$. Specifically, for each positive integer $\ell$, we define a…

We revisit the free field construction of the deformed $W$-superalgebras ${\cal W}_{q,t}(\mathfrak{sl}(2|1))$ by J. Ding and B. Feigin, {\it Contemp.Math.}{\bf 248}, 83-108 (1998), where the basic $W$-current and screening currents have…

The q-characters were introduced by Frenkel and mReshetikhin to study finite dimensional representations of the untwisted quantum affine algebra for q generic. The $\epsilon$-characters at roots of unity were constructed by Frenkel and…

We propose a novel quantum integrable model for every non-simply laced simple Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}$, which we call the folded integrable model. Its spectra correspond to solutions of the Bethe Ansatz equations obtained by folding the…

We show that a suitable deformation of the algebra $h_k(1)$ of the creation and annihilation operators for a complex scalar field, initially quantized in Minkowski space--time, induces the canonical quantization of the same field in a…

We obtain a condensed reconstruction of algebraic quantum theory, emphasizing its foundational aspects and algebraic structure. We obtain the $W^*$-algebra structure from elementary assumptions about observers and how they can observe…

We introduce a modified affine Hecke algebra $\h{H}^{+}_{q\eta}({l})$ ($\h{H}_{q\eta}({l})$) which depends on two deformation parameters $q$ and $\eta$. When the parameter $\eta$ is equal to zero the algebra $\h{H}_{q\eta=0}(l)$ coincides…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field, and fix a $q\in\mathbb{F}$. The $q$-deformed Heisenberg algebra $\mathcal{H}(q)$ is the unital associative algebra over $\mathbb{F}$ with generators $A$, $B$ and a relation which asserts that $AB - qBA$ is the…

By quantizing the generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction scheme for arbitrary $sl_2$ embeddings we show that a large set $\cal W$ of quantum W algebras can be viewed as (BRST) cohomologies of affine Lie algebras. The set $\cal W$ contains…

This work introduces a novel $q$-$\hbar$ deformation of the Heisenberg algebra, designed to unify and extend several existing $q$-deformed formulations. Starting from the canonical Heisenberg algebra defined by the commutation relation…

For a quiver with weighted arrows we define gauge-theory K-theoretic W-algebra generalizing the definition of Shiraishi et al., and Frenkel and Reshetikhin. In particular, we show that the qq-character construction of gauge theory presented…

W-algebra (of finite type) W is a certain associative algebra associated with a semisimple Lie algebra, say g, and its nilpotent element, say e. The goal of this paper is to study the category O for W introduced by Brundan, Goodwin and…

With the help of the Seiberg-Witten map for photons and fermions we define a theta-deformed QED at the classical level. Two possibilities of gauge-fixing are discussed. A possible non-Abelian extension for a pure theta-deformed Yang-Mills…

Weyl-orbit functions have been defined for each simple Lie algebra, and permit Fourier-like analysis on the fundamental region of the corresponding affine Weyl group. They have also been discretized, using a refinement of the coweight…

In the first part of this thesis we study the generalization of the recent algebraic approach to classical field theory by proposing a more general setting based on the manifold of smooth sections of a non-trivial fiber bundle. Central is…

We study the structure and representation theory of the principal W-algebra $\mathsf{W}^{\mathsf{k}}_{\mathrm{pr}}$ of $\mathsf{V}^{\mathsf{k}}(\mathfrak{psl}_{2|2})$. The defining operator product expansions are computed, as is the Zhu…

In this article we establish an explicit link between the classical theory of deformations \`a la Gerstenhaber -- and a fortiori with the Hochschild cohomology-- and (weak) PBW-deformations of homogeneous algebras. Our point of view is of…

In this paper we continue with the program to explore the topography of the space of W-type algebras. In the present case, the starting point is the work of Khesin, Lyubashenko and Roger on the algebra of q-deformed pseudodifferential…

We define quantum W-algebras generalizing the results of Reshetikhin and the second author, and Shiraishi-Kubo-Awata-Odake. The quantum W-algebra associated to sl_N is an associative algebra depending on two parameters. For special values…

We use the Hecke algebras of affine symmetric groups and their associated Schur algebras to construct a new algebra through a basis, and a set of generators and explicit multiplication formulas of basis elements by generators. We prove that…
