We define a superalgebra S2(N/2) as a Z2 graded algebra of dimension 2N+3, where N is a positive, odd integer. The even component is a three-dimensional abelian subalgebra, while the odd component is made up of two N-dimensional, mutually…

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…

Using bootstrap methods, we provide evidence for the existence of a non-linear W-algebra, denoted $W_\infty^\text{s,s}$, which contains the small N= 4 super Virasoro algebra and features an infinite tower of additional generators, organized…

We show that there are four chiral ${\cal W}$-algebra extensions of $\mathfrak{so}(2,3)$ algebra and construct them explicitly. We do this by a simple identification of each of the inequivalent embeddings of a copy of…

A systematic construction of super W-algebras in terms of the WZNW model based on a super Lie algebra is presented. These are shown to be the symmetry structure of the super Toda models, which can be obtained from the WZNW theory by…

We develop superspace techniques to construct general off-shell N=1,2,3,4 superconformal sigma-models in three space-time dimensions. The most general N=3 and N=4 superconformal sigma-models are constructed in terms of N=2 chiral…

In this paper, we study the $U(1)^2$ Kac--Moody algebra and generalize the standard Sugawara construction of the Virasoro algebra to an infinite family of new realizations. In this case, in addition to the standard invariant tensor…

We consider the nonlinear algebras $W(sl(4),sl(3))$ and $W(sl(3|1),sl(3))$ and find their realizations in terms of currents spanning conformal linearizing algebras. The specific structure of these algebras, allows us to construct…

We construct superconformal mechanics with $N=3$ and $N=4$ supersymmetries that were inspired by analogies with the supersymmetric Schwarzian mechanics. The Schwarzian, being another system with superconformal symmetry, provides insight…

In this paper, a continuation of \cite{MPS}, we investigate the $S_3$-orbifold subalgebra of $(\mathcal{V}_c)^{\otimes 3}$, that is, we consider the $S_3$-fixed point vertex subalgebra of the tensor product of three copies of the universal…

As shown by Witten the N=1 supersymmetric gauged WZW model based on a group G has an extended N=2 supersymmetry if the gauged subgroup H is so chosen that G/H is Kahler. We extend Witten's result and prove that the N=1 supersymmetric gauged…

We display the construction of a twisted superalgebra for the N=1 Euclidian supergravity on 4-manifolds with an almost complex structure. It acts on a representation of twisted supersymmetry made of forms with odd and even statistics and it…
