This is the seventh article in the collection of reviews "Exact results on N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories", ed. J.Teschner. It discusses an interesting class of observables localised on surfaces that attracts steadily growing attention.…
We present recent progress in theory of local conformal nets which is an operator algebraic approach to study chiral conformal field theory. We emphasize representation theoretic aspects and relations to theory of vertex operator algebras…
A superspace formulation is proposed for the osp(1,2)-covariant Lagrangian quantization of general massive gauge theories. The superalgebra os0(1,2) is considered as subalgebra of sl(1,2); the latter may be considered as the algebra of…
We study two-dimensional conformal field theories generated from a ``symplectic fermion'' - a free two-component fermion field of spin one - and construct the maximal local supersymmetric conformal field theory generated from it. This…
We construct two-dimensional conformal field theories with a Z_N symmetry, based on the second solution of Fateev-Zamolodchikov for the parafermionic chiral algebra. Primary operators are classified according to their transformation…
We construct boundary states in a particular c=1 conformal field theory, the SU(2)_1/G orbifold with G a binary finite subgroup of SU(2). These states preserve the conformal symmetry, at least, but break rational symmetries of the SU(2)_1/G…
We investigate a large class of $\mathcal{N} = (2, 2)$ supersymmetric field theories in two dimensions, which contains the Murugan-Stanford-Witten model, and can be naturally regarded as a disordered generalization of the two-dimensional…
We revisit the construction of conformal field theories based on Takiff algebras and superalgebras that was introduced by Babichenko and Ridout. Takiff superalgebras can be thought of as truncated current superalgebras with Z-grading which…
I show that the classical Toda models built on superalgebras, and obtained from a reduction with respect to an $Sl(2)$ algebra, are "linearly supersymmetrizable" (by adding spin 1/2 fields) if and only if the $Sl(2)$ is the bosonic part of…
We construct a set of non-rational conformal field theories that consist of deformations of Toda field theory for sl(n). Besides conformal invariance, the theories still enjoy a remnant infinite-dimensional affine symmetry. The case n=3 is…
A Fock space is introduced that admits an action of a quantum group of type A supplemented with some extra operators. The canonical and dual canonical basis of the Fock space are computed and then used to derive the finite-dimenisonal…
In this work, we study the supersymmetric warped conformal field theory in two dimensions. We show that the Hofman-Strominger theorem on symmetry enhancement could be generalized to the supersymmetric case. More precisely, we find that…
We analyse the SU(2)_k WZNW models beyond the integrable representations and in particular the case of SU(2)_0. We find that these are good examples of logarithmic conformal field theories as indecomposable representations are naturally…
We study the topologically twisted osp(2|2)+osp(2|2) conformal superalgebra. The algebra includes the Lagrangians which are intrinsic to the topological field theory and composed of fermionic generators. Studying the Lagrangians through a…
In this paper we fill a necessary gap in order to realize the explicit comparison between the Kaluza Klein spectra of supergravity compactified on AdS_4 x X^7 and superconformal field theories living on the world volume of M2-branes. On the…
In this note we give a new construction of the N=2 superconformal algebra using currents of the affine superalgebra $\hat{sl}(2 | 1)$ and free bosonic fields, and also the N=4 superconformal algebra without central charge in terms of…
We explore the constraints on the spectrum of primary fields implied by modularity of the elliptic genus of N=(2,2) 2D CFT's. We show that such constraints have nontrivial implications for the existence of "extremal" N=(2,2) conformal field…
An elliptic two-parameter deformation of the (universal enveloping superalgebra of) affine Lie superalgebra $osp(1|2)^{(1)}$ is proposed in terms of free boson realization. This deformed superalgebra is shown to fit in the framework of…
We study a family of interacting bosonic representations of the N=2 superconformal algebra. These models can be tensored with a conjugate theory to give the free theory. We explain how to use free fields to study interacting fields and…
A free field representation of the gl(1|1)_k current algebra at arbitrary level k is given in terms of two scalar fields and a symplectic fermion. The primary fields for all representations are explicitly constructed using the twist and…
