We derive the current algebra of principal chiral models with a Wess-Zumino term. At the critical coupling where the model becomes conformally invariant (Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten theory), this algebra reduces to two commuting Kac-Moody…

We introduce the notion of an asymptotic algebra of chiral differential operators. We then construct, via a chiral Hamiltonian reduction, one such algebra over a resolution of the intersection of the Slodowy slice with the nilpotent cone.…

Let g be a complex simple Lie algebra, f a nilpotent element of g. We show that (1) the center of the W-algebra $W^{cri}(g,f)$ associated with (g,f) at the critical level coincides with the Feigin-Frenkel center of the affine Lie algebra…

We discuss some aspects of the deformed W-algebras W_{q,t}[g]. In particular, we derive an explicit formula for the Kac determinant, and discuss the center when t^2 is a primitive k-th root of unity. The relation of the structure of…

We describe a new algebraic structure of "deformed chiral algebra" motivated by the study of the deformed W-algebras. We use it to gain some insights into the deformed Virasoro algebra.

By reducing a split $G_2$ Kac-Moody algebra by a non-maximal set of first-class constraints we produce W-algebras which (i) contain fields of negative conformal spin and (ii) are not trivial extensions of canonical W-algebras.

The elliptic algebra A_{q,p}(sl(N)_{c}) at the critical level c=-N has an extended center containing trace-like operators t(z). Families of Poisson structures, defining q-deformations of the W_N algebra, are constructed. The operators t(z)…

The restricted category O at the critical level over an affine Kac-Moody algebra is a certain subcategory of the ordinary BGG-category O. We study a deformed version introduced by Arakawa and Fiebig and calculate the center of the deformed…

In the presence of an $\Omega$-deformation, local operators generate a chiral algebra in the topological-holomorphic twist of a four-dimensional $\mathcal{N} = 2$ supersymmetric field theory. We show that for a unitary $\mathcal{N} = 2$…

Let H_c be the rational Cherednik algebra of type A_{n-1} with spherical subalgebra U_c = eH_ce. Then U_c is filtered by order of differential operators, with associated graded ring gr U_c = C[h+h*]^W, where W is the n-th symmetric group.…

We propose a notion of algebra of {\it twisted} chiral differential operators over algebraic manifolds with vanishing 1st Pontrjagin class. We show that such algebras possess families of modules depending on infinitely many complex…

The deformed $\mathcal W$ algebras of type $\textsf{A}$ have a uniform description in terms of the quantum toroidal $\mathfrak{gl}_1$ algebra $\mathcal E$. We introduce a comodule algebra $\mathcal K$ over $\mathcal E$ which gives a uniform…

We prove that the center of the affine Lie algebra $\widehat{\mathfrak{gl}}_{n|1}$ at the critical level is generated by the coefficients in the expansion of the pseudo-differential operator $(\partial_z-u_1(z))\cdots…

We extend to the sl(N) case the results that we previously obtained on the construction of W_{q,p} algebras from the elliptic algebra A_{q,p}(\hat{sl}(2)_c). The elliptic algebra A_{q,p}(\hat{sl}(N)_c) at the critical level c=-N has an…

We construct the $q$-deformed Clifford algebra of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ and study its properties. This allows us to define the $q$-deformed noncommutative Weil algebra $\mathcal{W}_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ for $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ and the…

Starting from noncommutative Fermi theory in two-dimensions, we construct a deformed Kac-Moody algebra between its vector and Chiral currents . The higher-order corrections to the deformed Kac-Moody algebra are explicitly calculated. We…

In this paper we study in detail algebraic properties of the algebra $\mathcal D(W)$ of differential operators associated to a matrix weight of Gegenbauer type. We prove that two second order operators generate the algebra, indeed $\mathcal…

We show that there are four chiral ${\cal W}$-algebra extensions of $\mathfrak{so}(2,3)$ algebra and construct them explicitly. We do this by a simple identification of each of the inequivalent embeddings of a copy of…

The quantisation of the Wess-Zumino-Witten model on a circle is discussed in the case of $SU(N)$ at level $k$. The quantum commutation of the chiral vertex operators is described by an exchange relation with a braiding matrix, $Q$. Using…

We study celestial chiral algebras appearing in celestial holography, using the light-cone gauge formulation of self-dual Yang-Mills theory and self-dual gravity, and explore also a deformation of the latter. The recently discussed…
