Recently it has been discovered that the W-algebras (orbifold of) WD_n can be defined even for negative integers n by an analytic continuation of their coupling constants. In this letter we shall argue that also the algebras WA_{-n-1} can be defined and are finitely generated. In addition, we show that a surprising connection exists between already known W-algebras, for example between the CP(k)-models and the U(1)-cosets of the generalized Polyakov-Bershadsky-algebras.

Non-Commutative Gauge Theory at the Beach
Non-commutative 5d Chern-Simons theory on the spinor bundle compactifies to the KP equation, with vanishing tree amplitudes and W_{1+∞} defect algebra reducing to w_{1+∞} in the dispersionless limit.
