We construct a sheaf of N=2 vertex algebras naturally associated to any Poisson manifold. The relation of this sheaf to the chiral de Rham complex is discussed. We reprove the result about the existence of two commuting N = 2 superconformal…
We construct Z_M, M= 2, 3, 4, 6 orbifold models of the N=2 superconformal field theories with central charge c=3. Then we check the description of the Z_3, Z_4 and Z_6 orbifolds by the N=2 superconformal Landau-Ginzburg models with c=3, by…
We present a manifestly $N=2$ supersymmetric formulation of $N=2$ super-$W_3^{(2)}$ algebra (its classical version) in terms of the spin 1 unconstrained supercurrent generating a $N=2$ superconformal subalgebra and the spins 1/2, 2 bosonic…
This paper is devoted to investigating the structure theory of a class of not-finitely graded Lie superalgebras related to generalized super-Virasoro algebras. In particular, we completely determine the derivation algebras, the automorphism…
We present an algebraic approach to string theory. An embedding of $sl(2|1)$ in a super Lie algebra together with a grading on the Lie algebra determines a nilpotent subalgebra of the super Lie algebra. Chirally gauging this subalgebra in…
We calculate the central charges a, c and k_G of a large class of four-dimensional N=2 superconformal field theories arising from compactifying the six-dimensional N=(2,0) theory on a Riemann surface with regular and irregular punctures. We…
In the first part of my talk I will explain a solution to the extension of Lie's problem on classification of "local continuous transformation groups of a finite-dimensional manifold" to the case of supermanifolds. (More precisely, the…
In this paper, Lie superbialgebra structures on the centerless twisted N=2 superconformal algebra $\LL$ are considered which are proved to be coboundary triangular.
We review the structure of the moduli space of particular N = (2,2) superconformal field theories. We restrict attention to those of particular use in superstring compactification, namely those with central charge c = 3d for some integer d…
We show that it is possible to construct a Virasoro algebra as a central extension of the fractional Witt algebra generated by non-local operators of the form, $L_n^a\equiv\left(\frac{\partial f}{\partial z}\right)^a$ where $a\in {\mathbb…
A sort of calculus is developed to find the chiral algebras of N=2 superconformal interacting bosonic models. Many examples are discussed. It is shown that the algebras share a common structure, which we call almost Landau Ginzburg. For one…
We prove some conjectures about vertex algebras which emerge in gauge theory constructions associated to the geometric Langlands program. In particular, we present the conjectural kernel vertex algebra for the $S T^2 S$ duality…
An extended free fermionic construction of the internal N=1 world sheet supercurrent for four-dimensional superstring theory is given. We show how it can describe theories with massless fermions, and we discuss the corresponding N=2…
We extend the Kazama-Suzuki construction of models with N=(2,2) world-sheet supersymmetry to cosets S/K of supergroups. Among the admissible target spaces that allow for an extension to N=2 superconformal algebras are some simple Lie…
We rewrite $ N=2$ quantum super $W_{3}$ algebra, a nonlinear extended $N=2$ super Virasoro algebra, containing one additional primary superfield of dimension $2$ which has no $U(1)$ charge, besides the super stress energy tensor of…
In the last six years remarkable developments have taken place concerning the representation theory of N=2 superconformal algebras. Here we present the highlights of such developments.
We study the supersymmetric Gelfand-Dickey algebras associated with the superpseudodifferential operators of positive as well as negative leading order. We show that, upon the usual constraint, these algebras contain the N=2 super Virasoro…
Let $L_c$ be simple vertex operator superalgebra(SVOA) associated to the vacuum representation of N=2 superconformal algebra with the central charge $c$. Let $c_m = {3m}/{m+2}$. We classify all irreducible modules for the SVOA $L_{c_m}$.…
It was recently understood that one can identify a chiral algebra in any four-dimensional N=2 superconformal theory. In this note, we conjecture the full set of generators of the chiral algebras associated with the T_n theories. The…
We investigate possibility of central extension for non-relativistic conformal algebras in 1+1 dimension. Three different forms of charges can be suggested. A trivial charge for temporal part of the algebra exists for all elements of…
