We construct a non-chiral current algebra in two dimensions consistent with conformal invariance. We show that the conformal current algebra is realized in non-linear sigma-models on supergroup manifolds with vanishing dual Coxeter number,…
Supersymmetry is deeply related to division algebras. Nonabelian Yang-Mills fields minimally coupled to massless spinors are supersymmetric if and only if the dimension of spacetime is 3, 4, 6 or 10. The same is true for the Green-Schwarz…
We study maximal subalgebras of an arbitrary finite dimensional algebra over a field, and obtain full classification/description results of such algebras. This is done by first obtaining a complete classification in the semisimple case, and…
We investigate the possibility to construct extended parafermionic conformal algebras whose generating current has spin $1+\frac{1}{K}$, generalizing the superconformal (spin 3/2) and the Fateev Zamolodchikov (spin 4/3) algebras. Models…
We study the spectrum generating closed nonlinear superconformal algebra that describes $\mathcal{N}=2$ super-extensions of rationally deformed quantum harmonic oscillator and conformal mechanics models with coupling constant $g=m(m+1)$,…
Conformal symmetry underlies the mathematical description of various two-dimensional integrable models (e.g. for their Lax representation, Poisson algebra, zero curvature representation,...) or of conformal models (for the anomalous Ward…
The construction of superintegrable systems based on Lie algebras and their universal enveloping algebras has been widely studied over the past decades. However, most constructions rely on explicit differential operator realisations and…
Kuratowski's theorem says that the minimal (under subgraph containment) graphs that are not planar are the subdivisions of $K_5$ and of $K_{3,3}$. Here we study the minimal (under subdigraph containment) strongly-connected digraphs that are…
Let $e$ be an arbitrary even nilpotent element in the general linear Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{gl}_{M|N}$ and let $\mathcal{W}_e$ be the associated finite $W$-superalgebra. Let $Y_{m|n}$ be the super Yangian associated to the Lie…
In this paper, we compare the abelian subalgebras and ideals of maximal dimension for finite-dimensional Zinbiel algebras. We study Zinbiel algebras containing maximal abelian subalgebras of codimension $1$ and supersolvable Zinbiel…
We investigate the W-algebras generated by the integer dimension chiral primary operators of the SU(2)_0 WZNW model. These have a form almost identical to that found in the c=-2 model but have, in addition, an extended Kac-Moody structure.…
We consider the finite Weyl groups of classical type -- $W(A_{r})$ for $r \geq 1$, $W(B_{r}) = W(C_{r})$ for $r \geq 2$, and $W(D_{r})$ for $r \geq 4$ -- as supergroups in which the reflections are of odd superdegree. Viewing the…
In this paper, we develop the mathematical formulation of metric string structures. These play a crucial role in the formulation of certain six-dimensional superconformal field theories and we believe that they also underlie potential…
The structure of classical non-linear $\cw$ algebras closing on rational functions is analyzed both for the ordinary and the supersymmetric case. Such algebras appear as a result of a coset construction. Their relevance to physical…
The super-AdS_5 X S^5 and the four-dimensional N=4 superconformal algebras play important roles in superstring theories. It is often discussed the roles of the osp(1|32) algebra as a maximal extension of the superalgebras in flat…
We investigate $N=2$ extended superconformal symmetry, using the half-twisted Landau-Ginzburg models. The first example is the $D_{2n+2}$ -type minimal model. It has been conjectured that this model has a spin $n$ super $W$ current. We…
We introduce two-sorted theories in the style of [CN10] for the complexity classes \oplusL and DET, whose complete problems include determinants over Z2 and Z, respectively. We then describe interpretations of Soltys' linear algebra theory…
We survey a number of results regarding the representation theory of $W$-algebras and their connection with the resent development of the four dimensional $N=2$ superconformal field theories in physics.
We present a manifestly $N=2$ supersymmetric formulation of $N=2$ super-$W_3$ algebra (its classical version) in terms of the spin 1 and spin 2 supercurrents. Two closely related types of the Feigin-Fuchs representation for these…
It is shown that the previously known $N=3$ and $N=4$ superconformal algebras can be contracted consistently by singular scaling of some of the generators. For the later case, by a contraction which depends on the central term, we obtain a…
