In [Kac77, Section 5.4] and [Kac 98], V. G. Kac tried to raise, and finished a classification of infinite-dimensional primitive Lie superalgebras. The series $\mathbf{W}(m,n)$ with $m,n$ being positive integers are the fundamental ones. In…

We study the quantum finite W-algebras W(gl_N,f), associated to the Lie algebra gl_N, and its arbitrary nilpotent element f. We construct for such an algebra an r_1 x r_1 matrix L(z) of Yangian type, where r_1 is the number of maximal parts…
