A highest weight theory for a finite W-algebra U(g,e) was developed in [BGK]. This leads to a strategy for classifying the irreducible finite dimensional U(g,e)-modules. The highest weight theory depends on the choice of a parabolic…
We present some results about the irreducible representations appearing in the exterior algebra $\Lambda \mathfrak{g}$, where $ \mathfrak{g}$ is a simple Lie algebra over $\mathbb{C}$. For Lie algebras of type $B$, $C$ or $D$ we prove that…
We prove unitarity of the vacuum representation of the $\mathcal{W}_3$-algebra for all values of the central charge $c\geq 2$. We do it by modifying the free field realization of Fateev and Zamolodchikov resulting in a representation which,…
We show that the blocks of category O for the Lie superalgebra q_n associated to half-integral weights carry the structure of a tensor product categorification for the infinite rank Kac-Moody algebra of type C. This allows us to prove two…
We study the indefinite Kac-Moody algebras AE(n), arising in the reduction of Einstein's theory from (n+1) space-time dimensions to one (time) dimension, and their distinguished maximal regular subalgebras sl(n) and affine A_{n-2}^{(1)}.…
The conformal field theory for the $gl(N,N)$ affine Lie superalgebra in two space-time dimensions is studied. The energy-momentum tensor of the model, with vanishing Virasoro anomaly, is constructed. This theory has a topological symmetry…
An irreducible weight module of an affine Kac-Moody algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ is called dense if its support is equal to a coset in $\mathfrak{h}^{*}/Q$. Following a conjecture of V. Futorny about affine Kac-Moody algebras $\mathfrak{g}$, an…
Irreducible nonzero level modules with finite-dimensional weight spaces are studied for non-twisted affine Lie superalgebras. A complete classification is obtained for superalgebras A(m,n)^ and C(n)^. In other cases the classification…
We prove a conjecture about mininmal index of certain representations of Coset Algebraic Conformal Field Theories under general conditions as formulated previously by us. As a by-product, the Kac-Wakimoto Conjecture (KWC) which is related…
N=2 noncritical strings are closely related to the $\Slr/\Slr$ Wess-Zumino- Novikov-Witten model, and there is much hope to further probe the former by using the algebraic apparatus provided by the latter. An important ingredient is the…
Representations of the non-semisimple superalgebra $gl(2|2)$ in the standard basis are investigated by means of the vector coherent state method and boson-fermion realization. All finite-dimensional irreducible typical and atypical…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a simply laced Lie algebra, $\widehat{\mathfrak{g}}_1$ the corresponding affine Lie algebra at level one, and $\mathcal{W}(\mathfrak{g})$ the corresponding Casimir W-algebra. We consider…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a finite or an affine type Lie algebra over $\mathbb{C}$ with root system $\Delta$. We show a parabolic generalization of the partial sum property for $\Delta$, which we term the parabolic partial sum property. It…
We consider epimorphisms from quantum minimal surface algebras onto involutroy subalgebras of split real simply-laced Kac-Moody algebras and provide examples of affine and finite type. We also provide epimorphisms onto such Kac-Moody…
We study the structure and representations of a family of vertex algebras obtained from affine superalgebras by quantum reduction. As an application, we obtain in a unified way free field realizations and determinant formulas for all…
For the affine vertex algebra $V_k(\mathfrak{g})$ at an admissible level $k$ of $\hat{\mathfrak{g}}$, we prove that certain subcategory of weak $V_k(\mathfrak{g})$-module category is semisimple. As a consequence, we show that…
The main result in this paper is the character formula for arbitrary irreducible highest weight modules of W algebras. The key ingredient is the functor provided by quantum Hamiltonian reduction, that constructs the W algebras from affine…
Let G be a reductive algebraic group over a local field K or a global field F. It is well know that there exists a non-trivial and interesting representation theory of the group G(K) as well as the theory of automorphic forms on the…
Relaxing first-class constraint conditions in the usual Drinfeld-Sokolov Hamiltonian reduction leads, after symmetry fixing, to realizations of W algebras expressed in terms of all the J-current components. General results are given for G a…
