We classify Jet modules for the Lie (super)algebras $\mathfrak{L}=W\ltimes(\mathfrak{g}\otimes\mathbb{C}[t,t^{-1}])$, where $W$ is the Witt algebra and $\mathfrak{g}$ is a Lie superalgebra with an even diagonlizable derivation. Then we give…
We describe a class of non-central extensions of the diffeomorphism algebra in N-dimensional spacetime, and construct lowest-energy modules thereof, thus generalizing work of Eswara-Rao and Moody. There is one representation for each…
The conformal anomaly and the Virasoro algebra are fundamental aspects of 2D conformal field theory and conformally covariant models in planar random geometry. In this article, we explicitly derive the Virasoro algebra from an…

In this paper, we studied the jet modules for the centerless Virasoro-like algebra which is the Lie algebra of the Lie group of the area-preserving diffeomorphisms of a $2$-torus. The jet modules are certain natural modules over the Lie…
We discuss a previously discovered [hep-th/9401027] extension of the infinite-dimensional Lie algebras Map(M,g) which generalizes the Kac-Moody algebras in 1+1 dimensions and the Mickelsson-Faddeev algebras in 3+1 dimensions to manifolds M…
