There is a relatively well understood class of deformable W-algebras, resulting from Drinfeld-Sokolov (DS) type reductions of Kac-Moody algebras, which are Poisson bracket algebras based on finitely, freely generated rings of differential…

The Toroidal Lie algebras are n variable genaralizations of Affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras. As in the affine Lie algebras there exists finite order auto= morphisms corresponding to Dynkin diagram automorphisms. The fixed point sub= algebras…

We study the q-characters and modular data of exceptional W-algebras and give several examples and applications. We establish equality of q-characters and modular data between certain boundary W-algebras, leading in particular to a largely…

A covering of k-graphs (in the sense of Pask-Quigg-Raeburn) induces an embedding of universal C*-algebras. We show how to build a (k+1)-graph whose universal algebra encodes this embedding. More generally we show how to realise a direct…

We review some basic features of the Lie-algebraic classification of W-algebras and related integrable hierarchies in 1+1 dimensions, pointing out the role of affine Lie algebras. We emphasize that the supersymmetric extensions of the above…

We identify vertex operator algebras (VOAs) of a class of Argyres-Douglas (AD) matters with two types of non-abelian flavor symmetries. They are the $W$ algebra defined using nilpotent orbit with partition $[q^m,1^s]$. Gauging above AD…

We prove a localization theorem for affine $W$-algebras in the spirit of Beilinson--Bernstein and Kashiwara--Tanisaki. More precisely, for any non-critical regular weight $\lambda$, we identify $\lambda$-monodromic Whittaker $D$-modules on…

We study the problem of quadruple extensions of simple Lie algebras. We find that, adding a new simple root $\alpha_{+4}$, it is not possible to have an extended Kac-Moody algebra described by a Dynkin-Kac diagram with simple links and no…

We construct new solvable vertex models based on the spin representation of the Lie algebra $B_k$. We use these models to study the algebraic structure underlying such vertex theories. We show that all the $B_k$ spin vertex models obey a…

Affine Toda field theories in two dimensions constitute families of integrable, relativistically invariant field theories in correspondence with the affine Kac-Moody algebras. The particles which are the quantum excitations of the fields…

We discuss the structure of the Motzkin algebra $M_k(D)$ by introducing a sequence of idempotents and the basic construction. We show that $\cup_{k\geq 1}M_k(D)$ admits a factor trace if and only if $D\in \{2\cos(\pi/n)+1|n\geq 3\}\cup…

In this paper we study the finitely generated algebras underlying $W$ algebras. These so called 'finite $W$ algebras' are constructed as Poisson reductions of Kirillov Poisson structures on simple Lie algebras. The inequivalent reductions…

The motivation comes from boson fermion correspondence. This article shows for each fermionic root there is correspondence a bosonic root, as a result we get for each Dynkin diagram of Lie Superalgebra a corresponding flip Dynkin…

The Maxwell algebra, an enlargement of Poincare algebra by Abelian tensorial generators, can be obtained in arbitrary dimension D by the suitable contraction of O(D-1,1) \oplus O(D-1,2) (Lorentz algebra \oplus AdS algebra). We recall that…

The algebraic and Hamiltonian structures of the multicomponent dispersionless Benney and Toda hierarchies are studied. This is achieved by using a modified set of variables for which there is a symmetry between the basic fields. This…

We find that multiple vertex algebras can arise from a single 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theory (SCFT). The connection is given by the BPS monodromy operator $M$, which is a wall-crossing invariant quantity that captures the…
