The purpose of this paper is to generalize Zhu's theorem about characters of modules over a vertex operator algebra graded by integer conformal weights, to the setting of a vertex operator superalgebra graded by rational conformal weights.…
We present a detailed study of the most general N=2 supersymmetric sigma models in four-dimensional anti-de Sitter space AdS_4 formulated in terms of N=1 chiral superfields. The target space is demonstrated to be a non-compact hyperkahler…
The present paper contains two interrelated developments. First, are proposed new generalized Verma modules. They are called k-Verma modules, k\in N, and coincide with the usual Verma modules for k=1. As a vector space a k-Verma module is…
In this paper we face the study of the representations of the exceptional Lie superalgebra E(5,10). We recall the construction of generalized Verma modules and give a combinatorial description of the restriction to sl_5 of the Verma module…
We present two simple descriptions of the denominator vectors of the cluster variables of a cluster algebra of finite type, with respect to any initial cluster seed: one in terms of the compatibility degrees between almost positive roots…
We constrain the spectrum of $\mathcal{N}=(1, 1)$ and $\mathcal{N}=(2, 2)$ superconformal field theories in two-dimensions by requiring the NS-NS sector partition function to be invariant under the $\Gamma_\theta$ congruence subgroup of the…
Let $G= SL_{n+1}$ be defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 2$. For each $n \geq 1$ there exists a singular block in the category of $G_1$-modules which contains precisely $n+1$ irreducible modules. We are…
In this paper, we present a determinant formula for the contravariant form on Verma modules over the N=1 Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS) superalgebra. This formula establishes a necessary and sufficient condition for the irreducibility of the…
Any non-critical N=2 string is shown to have an affine sl(2|1) worldsheet symmetry in the conformal gauge.
The embedding diagrams of representations of the N=2 superconformal algebra with central charge c=3 are given. Some non-unitary representations possess subsingular vectors that are systematically described. The structure of the embedding…
We shall first present an explicit realization of the simple $N=4$ superconformal vertex algebra $L_{c} ^{N=4}$ with central charge $c=-9$. This vertex superalgebra is realized inside of the $ b c \beta \gamma $ system and contains a…
We define extended SL(2,R)/U(1) characters which include a sum over winding sectors. By embedding these characters into similarly extended characters of N=2 algebras, we show that they have nice modular transformation properties. We…
Modules over affine Lie superalgebras ${\cal G}$ are studied, in particular, for ${\cal G}=\hat{OSP(1,2)}$. It is shown that on studying Verma modules, much of the results in Kac-Moody algebra can be generalized to the super case. Of most…
Representations of vertex operator algebras $V$ (VOAs) have numerous applications, including the construction of sheaves of conformal blocks on moduli spaces of curves. For a $V$-module $W = \oplus W_d$, a sequence of associative algebras…
Most of the non-Abelian string-vortices studied so far are characterized by two-dimensional \cpn models with various degrees of supersymmetry on their world sheet. We generalize this construction to "composite" non-Abelian strings…
We give expressions for the singular vectors in the highest weight representations of the Virasoro algebra. We verify that the expressions --- which take the form of a product of operators applied to the highest weight vector --- do indeed…
The notion of "N = 2 vertex superalgebra with two odd formal variables" is presented, the main axiom being a Jacobi identity with odd formal variables in which an N=2 superconformal shift is incorporated into the usual Jacobi identity for a…
The category of weight modules $L_k(\mathfrak{sl}_2)\text{-wtmod}$ of the simple affine vertex algebra of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ at an admissible level $k$ is neither finite nor semisimple and modules are usually not lower-bounded and have…
In this paper, we establish a converse to Schur's theorem for Lie superalgebras \( L \), focusing on cases where the minimal generator number pairs \((p \vert q)\) of \( L/Z(L) \) are considered, and where the superdimension \(…
We discuss some aspects of the composition structure of twisted Verma modules for the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}(3, \mathbb{C})$, including the explicit structure of singular vectors for both $\mathfrak{sl}(3, \mathbb{C})$ and one of its…
