abstract

We study representations of the central extension of the Lie algebra of differential operators on the circle, the W-infinity algebra. We obtain complete and specialized character formulas for a large class of representations, which we call primitive; these include all quasi-finite irreducible unitary representations. We show that any primitive representation with central charge N has a canonical structure of an irreducible representation of the W-algebra W(gl_N) with the same central charge and that all irreducible representations of W(gl_N) with central charge N arise in this way. We also establish a duality between "integral" modules of W(gl_N) and finite-dimensional irreducible modules of gl_N, and conjecture their fusion rules.

Twisted Cherednik spectrum as a $q,t$-deformation

hep-th · 2026-01-15 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

The twisted Cherednik spectrum is a q,t-deformation of the polynomial eigenfunctions built from symmetric ground states and weak-composition excitations at q=1.

Quarter-indices for basic ortho-symplectic corners

hep-th · 2026-04-29 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Exact quarter-indices for basic ortho-symplectic corners in N=4 SYM are obtained in closed form, proven equal under duality, and interpreted as vacuum characters of BCD W-algebras and osp(1|2N) VOAs.
