It is shown that the commutation relations of W-algebras can be recovered from the singular vectors of their simplest nontrivial, completely degenerate highest weight representation.
Some time ago, conformal data with affine fusion rules were found. Our purpose here is to realize some of these conformal data, using systems of free bosons and parafermions. The so constructed theories have an extended $W$ algebras which…
We present two explicit expressions for generic singular vectors of type $(r,s)$ of the Virasoro algebra. These results follow from the paper of Bauer et al which presented recursive methods to construct the vectors. The expressions…
We show how bosonic (free field) representations for so-called degenerate conformal theories are built by singular vectors in Verma modules. Based on this construction, general expressions of conformal blocks are proposed. As an example we…
In these lectures, we study and compare two different formulations of $SU(2)$, level $k=1$, Wess-Zumino-Witten conformal field theory. The first, conventional, formulation employs the affine symmetry of the model; in this approach…
The properties of highest-weight representations of the N=2 superconformal algebra in two dimensions can be considerably simplified when re-expressed in terms of relaxed ^sl(2) representations. This applies to the appearance of submodules…
In this paper, we use free field realisations of the A-type principal, or Casimir, $W_N$ algebras to derive explicit formulae for singular vectors in Fock modules. These singular vectors are constructed by applying screening operators to…
We calculate explicitly the singular vectors of the Virasoro algebra with the central charge $c\leq 1$. As a result, we have an infinite sequence of the singular vectors for each Fock space with given central charge and highest weight, and…
Bauer, Di Francesco, Itzykson and Zuber proposed recently an algorithm to construct all singular vectors of the Virasoro algebra. It is based on the decoupling of (already known) singular fields in the fusion process. We show how to extend…
In this work we pursue the singular-vector analysis of the integrable perturbations of conformal theories that was initiated in hep-th/9603088. Here we consider the detailed study of the N=1 superconformal theory and show that all…
A simple realization of the conformal higher spin symmetry on the free $3d$ massless matter fields is given in terms of an auxiliary Fock module both in the flat and $AdS_3$ case. The duality between non-unitary field-theoretical…
We study various aspects of parafermionic theories such as the precise field content, a description of a basis of states (that is, the counting of independent states in a freely generated highest-weight module) and the explicit expression…
In rational conformal field theory, the Verlinde formula computes the fusion coefficients from the modular S-transformations of the characters of the chiral algebra's representations. Generalising this formula to logarithmic models has…
For any complex simple Lie algebra, we generalize primary fileds in the Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten conformal field theory with respect to the case of irregular singularities and we construct integral representations of hypergeometric…
A class of non-semisimple extensions of Lie superalgebras is studied. They are obtained by adjoining to the superalgebra its adjoint representation as an abelian ideal. When the superalgebra is of affine Kac-Moody type, a generalisation of…
The BRST quantisation of the Drinfeld - Sokolov reduction applied to the case of $A^{(1)}_2\,$ is explored to construct in an unified and systematic way the general singular vectors in ${\cal W}_3$ and ${\cal W}_3^{(2)}$ Verma modules. The…
Group elements of SU(2) are expressed in closed form as finite polynomials of the Lie algebra generators, for all definite spin representations of the rotation group. The simple explicit result exhibits connections between group theory,…
We consider the problem of computing N=2 superconformal block functions. We argue that the Kazama-Suzuki coset realization of N=2 superconformal algebra in terms of the affine sl(2) algebra provides relations between N=2 and affine sl(2)…
This paper investigates the structure of Verma modules over the N=1 BMS superalgebra. We provide a detailed classification of singular vectors, establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of subsingular vectors, uncover…
Functional equations, in the form of fusion hierarchies, are studied for the transfer matrices of the fused restricted $A_{n-1}^{(1)}$ lattice models of Jimbo, Miwa and Okado. Specifically, these equations are solved analytically for the…
