We compute the modification of the $w_{1+\infty}$ algebra of soft graviton, gluon and scalar currents in the celestial CFT due to non-minimal couplings. We find that the Jacobi identity is satisfied only when the spectrum and couplings of…

By generalizing the Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction a large class of $W$ algebras can be constructed. We introduce 'finite' versions of these algebras by Poisson reducing Kirillov Poisson structures on simple Lie algebras. A closed and…

The Lie superalgebra $W(\infty)$ is defined to be the direct limit of the simple finite-dimensional Cartan type Lie superalgebras $W(n)$ as $n$ goes to infinity, where $W(n)$ denotes the Lie superalgebra of superderivations of the Grassmann…

We generalize some of the standard homological techniques to $\cW$-algebras, and compute the semi-infinite cohomology of the $\cW_3$ algebra on a variety of modules. These computations provide physical states in $\cW_3$ gravity coupled to…

We study theories with W-algebra symmetries and their relation to WZNW models on (super-)groups. Correlation functions of the WZNW models are expressed in terms of correlators of CFTs with W-algebra symmetry. The symmetries of the theories…

Originating in the work of A.M. Semikhatov and D. Adamovi\'c, inverse reductions are embeddings involving W-algebras corresponding to the same Lie algebra but different nilpotent orbits. Here, we show that an inverse reduction embedding…

We find out that some unitary minimal models of the N=1 ${\cal SW}(3/2,2)$ superconformal algebra can be realized as the level one coset models based on the Wolf spaces $SU(n)/(SU(n-2)\times SU(2))$. We obtain the expression of the…

It is known that Ashtekar's formulation for pure Einstein gravity can be cast into the form of a topological field theory, namely the $SU(2)$ BF theory, with the B-fields subject to an algebraic constraint. We extend this relation between…

The notion of conservative algebras appeared in a paper by Kantor in 1972. Later, he defined the conservative algebra $W(n)$ of all algebras (i.e. bilinear maps) on the $n$-dimensional vector space. If $n>1$, then the algebra $W(n)$ does…

It has been shown that the Cartan subalgebra of $W_{\infty}$- algebra is the space of the two-variable, definite-parity polynomials. Explicit expressions of these polynomials, and their basic properties are presented. Also has been shown…

We obtain a new free field realization of $N=2$ super $W_{3}$ algebra using the technique of quantum hamiltonian reduction. The construction is based on a particular choice of the simple root system of the affine Lie superalgebra…

The universal $2$-parameter vertex algebra $W_{\infty}$ of type $W(2,3,4,\dots)$ serves as a classifying object for vertex algebras of type $W(2,3,\dots,N)$ for some $N$ in the sense that under mild hypothesis, all such vertex algebras…

A family of solvable self-dual Lie algebras is presented. There exist a few methods for the construction of non-reductive self-dual Lie algebras: an orthogonal direct product, a double-extension of an Abelian algebra, and a Wigner…

In this paper we discuss a higher spin extension of the holographic symmetry algebra for graviton and gluon. Our primary observation is that in the presence of higher spin particles the soft symmetry algebra has a subalgebra isomorphic to…

Let $\Bbbk$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We study some cohomological properties of Lie subalgebras of the Witt algebra $W = \operatorname{Der}(\Bbbk[t,t^{-1}])$ and the one-sided Witt algebra $W_{\geq -1} =…

Just like the vector bosons in Abelian and non-Abelian gauge theories, gravitons can attain mass by spontaneous local symmetry breaking. The question is whether this can happen in a Lorentz-invariant way. We consider the use of four scalar…

For any given algebra of local observables in Minkowski space an associated scaling algebra is constructed on which renormalization group (scaling) transformations act in a canonical manner. The method can be carried over to arbitrary…

We study local algebras, which are structures similar to $\mathbb{Z}$-graded algebras concentrated in degrees $-1,0,1$, but without a product defined for pairs of elements at the same degree $\pm1$. To any triple consisting of a Kac-Moody…

We study quantum systems with even numbers N of levels that are completely state-controlled by unitary transformations generated by Lie algebras isomorphic to sp(N) of dimension N(N+1)/2. These Lie algebras are smaller than the respective…

The infinite affine Lie algebras of type ABCD, also called $\widehat{\mathfrak{gl}}(\infty)$, $\widehat{\mathfrak{o}}(\infty)$, $\widehat{\mathfrak{sp}}(\infty)$, are equivalent to subalgebras of the quantum $W_{1+\infty}$ algebras. They…
