We compute the K-theory of a collection of C*-algebras, which we refer to as boundary C*-algebras, arising as the crossed product C*-algebras of lattice actions on the maximal Furstenberg boundaries of symmetric spaces of noncompact type.…

We propose an algebraic description of (untwisted) D-branes on compact group manifolds $G$ using quantum algebras related to $U_q(\mg)$. It reproduces the known characteristics of stable branes in the WZW models, in particular their…

Classical {\W}$_3$ transformations are discussed as restricted diffeomorphism transformations (\W-Diff) in two-dimensional space. We formulate them by using Riemannian geometry as a basic ingredient. The extended {\W}$_3$ generators are…

The symplectic geometry of the phase space associated with a charged particle is determined by the addition of the Faraday 2-form to the standard structure on the Euclidean phase space. In this paper we describe the corresponding algebra of…

Classical W-symmetry is globally parametrized by the Grassmannian Manifold which is associated with the non-relativistic fermions. We give the bosonization rule which defines the natural higher coordinates system to describe the W-geometry.…

The algebra of symmetric tensors $S(X):= H^0(X, \sf{S}^{\bullet} T_X)$ of a projective manifold $X$ leads to a natural dominant affinization morphism $$ \varphi_X: T^*X \longrightarrow \mathcal{Z}_X:= \text{Spec} S(X). $$ It is shown that…

The paper examines machines of the type of the $\Gamma$-spaces of Segal which describe homotopy structures on topological spaces. The main result of the paper shows that for any such machine one can find an algebraic theory characterizing…

Additive deformations of bialgebras in the sense of J. Wirth, i.e. deformations of the multiplication map fulfilling a certain compatibility condition w.r.t. the coalgebra structure, can be generalized to braided bialgebras. The theorems…

Symplectic resolutions are an exciting new frontier of research in representation theory. One of the most fascinating aspects of this study is symplectic duality: the observation that these resolutions come in pairs with matching…

In this paper we study arbitrary $W$ algebras related to embeddings of $sl_2$ in a Lie algebra $g$. We give a simple formula for all $W$ transformations, which will enable us to construct the covariant action for general $W$ gravity. It…

It is proved that for a vector space W, any set of parafermion-like vertex operators on W in a certain canonical way generates a generalized vertex algebra in the sense of [DL2] with W as a natural module. This result generalizes a result…

By reducing a split $G_2$ Kac-Moody algebra by a non-maximal set of first-class constraints we produce W-algebras which (i) contain fields of negative conformal spin and (ii) are not trivial extensions of canonical W-algebras.

A ``Wick rotation'' is applied to the noncommutative sphere to produce a noncommutative version of the hyperboloids. A harmonic basis of the associated algebra is given. It is noted that, for the one sheeted hyperboloid, the vector space…
