In this note we prove that the vertex operator superalgebras associated to the unitary representations of the N=2 superconformal algebra are rational.

The unitary $N = 2$ superconformal minimal models have a long history in string theory and mathematical physics, while their non-unitary (and logarithmic) cousins have recently attracted interest from mathematicians. Here, we give an…

We show that each unitary representation of the N=2 superVirasoro algebra can be realized in terms of ``collective excitations'' over a filled Dirac sea of fermionic operators satisfying a generalized exclusion principle. These are…

We explicitly construct the extension of the N=2 super Virasoro algebra by two super primary fields of dimension two and three with vanishing u(1)-charge. Using a super covariant formalism we obtain two different solutions both consistent…

Kazama-Suzuki coset models is an interesting class of N=2 supersymmetric models of conformal field theory which are used to build realistic models of superstring in 4 dimensions. We formulate Kazama-Suzuki construction of N=2 superconformal…

We investigate the representation theory of some recently constructed N=2 super W-algebras with two generators. Except for the central charges in the unitary minimal series of the N=2 super Virasoro algebra we find no new rational models.…

We discuss the nonlinear extension of $N=2$ superconformal algebra by generalizing Sugawara construction and coset construction built from $N=2$ currents based on Kazama-Suzuki $N=2$ coset model $\frac{SU(3)}{SU(2) \times U(1)}$ in $N=2$…

We show the strong graded locality of all unitary minimal W-algebras, so that they give rise to irreducible graded-local conformal nets. Among these unitary vertex superalgebras, up to taking tensor products with free fermion vertex…

In hep-th/9506151 we started a programme devoted to the systematic study of the conformal field theories derived from WZW models based on nonreductive Lie groups. In this, the second part, we continue this programme with a look at the N=1…

We investigate extensions of the N=2 super Virasoro algebra by one additional super primary field and its charge conjugate. Using a supersymmetric covariant formalism we construct all N=2 super W-algebras up to spin 5/2 of the additional…

Let $L_c$ be simple vertex operator superalgebra(SVOA) associated to the vacuum representation of N=2 superconformal algebra with the central charge $c$. Let $c_m = {3m}/{m+2}$. We classify all irreducible modules for the SVOA $L_{c_m}$.…

We construct free-field resolutions of unitary representations of the N=2 superconformal algebra. The irreducible representations are singled out from free-field spaces as the cohomology of fermionic screening operators. We construct and…

We study the modular invariance of $N=2$ superconformal $SU(1,1)$ models. By decomposing the characters of Kazama-Suzuki model $SU(3)/(SU(2)\times U(1))$ into an infinite sum of the characters of $(SU(1,1)/U(1))\times U(1)$ we construct…

The purpose of this note is to demonstrate the advantages of Y.-Z.~Huang's definition of the Zhu algebra (Comm.\ Contemp.\ Math., 7 (2005), no.~5, 649--706) for an arbitrary vertex algebra, not necessarily equipped with a Hamiltonian…

We study the problem of constructing N=2 superconformal algebras out of an N=1 affine Lie algebra. Following a recent independent observation of Getzler and the author, we derive a simplified set of N=2 master equations, which we then…

We extend the Kazama-Suzuki construction of models with N=(2,2) world-sheet supersymmetry to cosets S/K of supergroups. Among the admissible target spaces that allow for an extension to N=2 superconformal algebras are some simple Lie…

We consider N=1,2 superconformal mechanics in 0+1 dimensions and show that if the Hamiltonian is invertible the superconformal generators can be used to construct half of the super Virasoro algebra. The full algebra can be derived if the…

We present the list of irreducible (generalized) highest weight modules over the Virasoro algebra and N=1 super-Virasoro algebras obtained as factor-modules of (generalized) Verma modules. We present also the character formulae of all these…

We study the nonunitary representations of N=2 Super Virasoro algebra for the rational central charges c<3. The resolutions for the irreducible representations of N=2 SVir in terms of the "2-d gravity modules" are obtained and their…

SW(3/2,2) superconformal algebra is W algebra with two Virasoro operators. The Kac determinant is calculated and the complete list of unitary representations is determined. Two types of extensions of SW(3/2,2) algebra are discussed. A new…
