We represent Feigin's construction [11] of lattice W algebras and give some simple results: lattice Virasoro and $W_3$ algebras. For simplest case $g=sl(2)$ we introduce whole $U_q(sl(2))$ quantum group on this lattice. We find simplest…
It is shown that the closure of the infinitesimal symmetry transformations underlying classical ${\cal W}$ algebras give rise to L$_\infty$ algebras with in general field dependent gauge parameters. Therefore, the class of well understood…
We study a canonical quantization of the Wess--Zumino--Witten (WZW) model which depends on two integer parameters rather than one. The usual theory can be obtained as a contraction, in which our two parameters go to infinity keeping the…
We introduce $*$-structures on braided groups and braided matrices. Using this, we show that the quantum double $D(U_q(su_2))$ can be viewed as the quantum algebra of observables of a quantum particle moving on a hyperboloid in q-Minkowski…
A theory of canonical basis for a two-parameter quantum algebra is developed in parallel with the one in one-parameter case. A geometric construction of the negative part of a two-parameter quantum algebra is given by using mixed perverse…
We introduce the notion of pure Q-solvable algebra. The quantum matrices, quantum Weyl algebra, U_q(n) are the examples. It is proved that the skew field of fractions of pure Q-solvable algebra is isomorphic to the skew field of twisted…
The Wess-Zumino-Witten model defined on the group SU(2) has a unique (non-trivial) simple current of conformal dimension k/4 for each level k. The extended algebra defined by this simple current is carefully constructed in terms of…
We investigate whether there are unitary families of W-algebras with spin one fields in the natural example of the Feigin-Semikhatov W^(2)_n-algebra. This algebra is conjecturally a quantum Hamiltonian reduction corresponding to a…
We formalize the quantum arithmetic, i.e. a relationship between number theory and operator algebras. Namely, it is proved that rational projective varieties are dual to the $C^*$-algebras with real multiplication. Our construction fits all…
We construct quadratic finite-dimensional Poisson algebras and their quantum versions related to rank N and degree one vector bundles over elliptic curves with n marked points. The algebras are parameterized by the moduli of curves. For N=2…
Quadratic algebras are generalizations of Lie algebras; they include the symmetry algebras of 2nd order superintegrable systems in 2 dimensions as special cases. The superintegrable systems are exactly solvable physical systems in classical…
Considering anyonic oscillators in a two-dimensional lattice, we realize the quantum semi-group $sl_{(q,s)}(2)$ by means of a generalized Schwinger construction. We find that the parameter $q$ of the algebra is connected to the statistical…
We show that the Zamolodchikov's and Polyakov-Bershadsky nonlinear algebras $W_3$ and $W_3^{(2)}$ can be embedded as subalgebras into some {\em linear} algebras with finite set of currents. Using these linear algebras we find new field…
In this paper, we recall our renormalized quantum Q-system associated with representations of the Lie algebra $A_r$, and show that it can be viewed as a quotient of the quantum current algebra $U_q({\mathfrak n}[u,u^{-1}])\subset…
Given a pair of nilpotent orbits in a simple Lie algebra, one can associate a pair of vertex algebras called affine W-algebras. Under some compatibility conditions on these orbits, we prove that one of these W-algebras can be obtained as…
We construct the nonlinear $N=2$ super-$W_3^{(2)}$ algebra with an arbitrary central charge at the classical level in the framework of Polyakov "soldering" procedure. It contains two non-intersecting subalgebras: $N=2$ superconformal…
In this paper, we associate quantum vertex algebras to a certain family of associative algebras $\widetilde{\A}(g)$ which are essentially Ding-Iohara algebras. To do this, we introduce another closely related family of associative algebras…
We give a review of the extended conformal algebras, known as $W$ algebras, which contain currents of spins higher than 2 in addition to the energy-momentum tensor. These include the non-linear $W_N$ algebras; the linear $W_\infty$ and…
Using two WZNW theories for Lie algebras $g$ and $h, h\subset g,$ we construct the associative quotient algebra which includes a class of $g/h$ coset primary fields and currents.
We consider the problem of classification of all W algebras which commute with a set of exponential screening operators. Assuming that the W algebra has a nontrivial current of spin 3, we find equations satisfied by the screening operators…
