Abstract

Let \D\D be the Lie algebra of regular differentialoperators on \C{0}{\C} \setminus \{0\}, and \hD=\D+\CC{\hD}= {\D} + {\C} C be the central extension of \D{\D}. Let W1+,NW_{1+\infty,-N} be the vertex algebra associated to the irreducible vacuum \hD\hD-module with the central charge c=Nc=-N. We show that W1+,NW_{1+\infty,-N} is a subalgebra of the Heisenberg vertex algebra M(1) with 2N2 N generators, and construct 2N-dimensional family of irreducible W1+,NW_{1+\infty,-N}-modules. Considering these modules as \hD\hD-modules, we identify the corresponding highest weights.
