We construct the unique two-parameter vertex algebra which is freely generated of type ${\mathcal W}(2,4,6,\dots)$, and generated by the weights $2$ and $4$ fields. Subject to some mild constraints, all vertex algebras of type ${\mathcal…

The universal $2$-parameter vertex algebra $\mathcal{W}_{\infty}$ of type $\mathcal{W}(2,3,\dots)$ is a classifying object for vertex algebras of type $\mathcal{W}(2,3,\dots,N)$ for some $N$; under mild hypotheses, all such vertex algebras…

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…

There are three universal $2$-parameter vertex algebras $\mathcal{W}_{\infty}$, $\mathcal{W}^{\text{ev}}_{\infty}$, and $\mathcal{W}^{\mathfrak{sp}}_{\infty}$ which are freely generated of types $\mathcal{W}(2,3,4,\dots)$,…

We prove the conjecture of Gaiotto and Rap\v{c}\'ak that the $Y$-algebras $Y_{L,M,N}[\psi]$ with one of the parameters $L,M,N$ zero, are simple one-parameter quotients of the universal two-parameter $\mathcal{W}_{1+\infty}$-algebra, and…

The universal two-parameter ${\mathcal W}_{\infty}$-algebra is a classifying object for vertex algebras of type ${\mathcal W}(2,3,\dots, N)$ for some $N$. Gaiotto and Rap\v{c}\'ak recently introduced a large family of such vertex algebras…

Two series of W-algebras with two generators are constructed from chiral vertex operators of a free field representation. If $c = 1 - 24k$, there exists a W(2,3k) algebra for k in $Z_{+}/2$ and a W(2,8k) algebra for k in $Z_{+}/4$. All…

In this paper the W-algebra W(2,2) and its representation theory are studied. It is proved that a simple vertex operator algebra generated by two weight 2 vectors is either a vertex operator algebra associated to a highest irreducible…

There is an embedding of affine vertex algebras $V^k(\mathfrak{gl}_n) \hookrightarrow V^k(\mathfrak{sl}_{n+1})$, and the coset $\mathcal{C}^k(n) = \text{Com}(V^k(\mathfrak{gl}_n), V^k(\mathfrak{sl}_{n+1}))$ is a natural generalization of…

We study the structure and representation theory of the principal W-algebra $\mathsf{W}^{\mathsf{k}}_{\mathrm{pr}}$ of $\mathsf{V}^{\mathsf{k}}(\mathfrak{psl}_{2|2})$. The defining operator product expansions are computed, as is the Zhu…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a basic Lie superalgebra and $f$ be an odd nilpotent element in an $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$ subalgebra of $\mathfrak{g}$. We provide a mathematical proof of the statement that the W-algebra $W^k(\mathfrak{g},F)$ for…

For every algebraically closed field $\boldsymbol k$ of characteristic different from $2$, we prove the following: (1) Generic finite dimensional (not necessarily associative) $\boldsymbol k$-algebras of a fixed dimension, considered up to…

The Bershadsky-Polyakov algebra is the $\mathcal{W}$-algebra associated to $\mathfrak{s}\mathfrak{l}_3$ with its minimal nilpotent element $f_{\theta}$. For notational convenience we define $\mathcal{W}^{\ell} = \mathcal{W}^{\ell - 3/2}…

This paper consists of two parts. In the first part, we prove that when $\mathfrak{g}$ is a simple basic Lie superalgebra with a principal odd nilpotent element $f$, the W-algebra $W^k(\mathfrak{g}, F)$ for $F=-\frac{1}{2}[f,f]$ is…

The problem of determining maximal ideals in universal affine vertex algebras is difficult for levels beyond admissible, since there are no simple character formulas which can be applied. Here we investigate when certain quotient $\mathcal…

It is believed that any classical gauge symmetry gives rise to an L$_\infty$ algebra. Based on the recently realized relation between classical ${\cal W}$ algebras and L$_\infty$ algebras, we analyze how this generalizes to the quantum…

The affine Yangian of $\mathfrak{gl}_1$ is isomorphic to the universal enveloping algebra of $\mathcal{W}_{1+\infty}$ and can serve as a building block in the construction of new vertex operator algebras. In [1], a two-parameter family…

$W$-algebras are certain algebraic structures associated to a finite dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ and a nilpotent element $f$ via Hamiltonian reduction. In this note we give a review of a recent approach to the study of (classical…

Trialities of $\mathcal{W}$-algebras are isomorphisms between the affine cosets of three different $\mathcal{W}$-(super)algebras, and were first conjectured in the physics literature by Gaiotto and Rap\v{c}\'ak. In this paper we prove…

We study invariant Hermitian forms on a conformal vertex algebra and on their (twisted) modules. We establish existence of a non-zero invariant Hermitian form on an arbitrary $W$-algebra. We show that for a minimal simple $W$-algebra…
