We prove that the classical $W$-algebra associated to a nilpotent orbit in a simple Lie-algebra can be constructed by preforming bihamiltonian, Drinfeld-Sokolov or Dirac reductions. We conclude that the classical $W$-algebra depends only on…

In this paper we consider the structure of general quantum W-algebras. We introduce the notions of deformability, positive-definiteness, and reductivity of a W-algebra. We show that one can associate a reductive finite Lie algebra to each…

We derive sufficient conditions under which the ``second'' Hamiltonian structure of a class of generalized KdV-hierarchies defines one of the classical $\cal W$-algebras obtained through Drinfel'd-Sokolov Hamiltonian reduction. These…

In this paper we present a systematic study of $W$ algebras from the Hamiltonian reduction point of view. The Drinfeld-Sokolov (DS) reduction scheme is generalized to arbitrary $sl_2$ embeddings thus showing that a large class of W algebras…

We clarify the notion of the DS --- generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov --- reduction approach to classical ${\cal W}$-algebras. We first strengthen an earlier theorem which showed that an $sl(2)$ embedding ${\cal S}\subset {\cal G}$ can be…

We employ the Poisson-Lie group of pseudo-difference operators to define lattice analogs of classical $W_m$-algebras. We then show that the so-constructed algebras coincide with the ones given by discrete Drinfeld-Sokolov type reduction.

By quantizing the generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction scheme for arbitrary $sl_2$ embeddings we show that a large set $\cal W$ of quantum W algebras can be viewed as (BRST) cohomologies of affine Lie algebras. The set $\cal W$ contains…

We propose a q-difference version of the Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction scheme, which gives us q-deformations of the classical W-algebras by reduction from Poisson-Lie loop groups. We consider in detail the case of SL(2). The nontrivial…

The purpose of this article is to investigate relations between W-superalgebras and integrable super-Hamiltonian systems. To this end, we introduce the generalized Drinfel'd-Sokolov (D-S) reduction associated to a Lie superalgebra $g$ and…

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…

We show that every Lie algebra or superLie algebra has a canonical braiding on it, and that in terms of this its enveloping algebra appears as a flat space with braided-commuting coordinate functions. This also gives a new point of view…

In the first part of this paper, we discuss the classical W-algebra $\mathcal{W}(\mathfrak{g}, F)$ associated with a Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and the nilpotent element $F$ in an $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-triple. We find a generating set of…

It is shown that the quantised enveloping algebra of sl(n) contains a quantum Lie algebra, defined by means of axioms similar to Woronowicz's., This gives rise to Lie algebra-like generators and relations for the locally finite part of the…

In this paper we study the finitely generated algebras underlying $W$ algebras. These so called 'finite $W$ algebras' are constructed as Poisson reductions of Kirillov Poisson structures on simple Lie algebras. The inequivalent reductions…

We review the construction of Drinfeld-Sokolov type hierarchies and classical W-algebras in a Hamiltonian symmetry reduction framework. We describe the list of graded regular elements in the Heisenberg subalgebras of the nontwisted loop…

A finite W-algebra is an associative algebra constructed from a semisimple Lie algebra and its nilpotent element. In this survey we review recent developments in the representation theory of W-algebras. We emphasize various interactions…

Poisson-Lie duality provides an algebraic extension of conventional Abelian and non-Abelian target space dualities of string theory and has seen recent applications in constructing quantum group deformations of holography. Here we…

We consider Drinfeld-Sokolov bihamiltonian structure associated to a distinguished nilpotent elements of semisimple type and the space of common equilibrium points defined by its leading term. On this space, we construct a local…

It is well known that the Poisson Lie algebra is isomorphic to the Hamiltonian Lie algebra. We show that the Poisson Lie algebra can be embedded properly in the special type Lie algebra. We also generalize the Hamiltonian Lie algebra using…

In this expository article, we describe the classification of the subalgebras of the rank 2 semisimple Lie algebras. Their semisimple subalgebras are well-known, and in a recent series of papers, we completed the classification of the…
