The $N=4$ SU(2)$_k$ superconformal algebra has the global automorphism of SO(4) $\approx$ SU(2)$\times$SU(2) with the {\it left} factor as the Kac-Moody gauge symmetry. As a consequence, an infinite set of independent algebras labeled by…

Given any representation of an arbitrary Lie algebra L over a field k of characteristic 0, we construct representations of L on bosonic and fermionic Fock space. The method gives an explicit formula for a (sometimes trivial) 2-cocycle in…

In thermal field theory selfconsistent (Phi-derivable) approximations are used to improve (resum) propagators at the level of two-particle irreducible diagrams. At the same time vertices are treated at the bare level. Therefore such…
We construct the bosonization of the Fock space $\mathit{F^{\otimes \frac{1}{2}}}$ of a single neutral fermion by using a 2-point local Heisenberg field. We decompose the Fock space $\mathit{F^{\otimes \frac{1}{2}}}$ as a direct sum of…
A Lagrangian definition of a large family of (0,2) supersymmetric conformal field theories may be made by an appropriate gauge invariant combination of a gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten model, right-moving supersymmetry fermions, and left-moving…
We describe several families of non-unitary coset conformal field theories that possess truly marginal couplings. These generalize the known examples of Wess-Zumino-Witten models on supergroups such as PSU(n|n) or OSP(2n+2|2n). Our…
