On unitary representations of the Virasoro algebra
Some representations π of b of particular interest [2] are the Verma modules (V, π) = (V , π), h, c ǫ R. They are characterized by the following conditions. (i) There is a vector v = vφ 6= 0 in V such that Lnv = 0, n > 0, L0v = hv, Zv = cv. (ii) Let A be the set of sequences of integers k1,≥ k2 ≥ . . . ≥ kr > 0 of arbitrary length, and if α ǫ A let vα = π(L−k1) . . . π(L−kr)vφ. Then {vα|α ǫ A} ...
متن کاملHighest weight representations of the Virasoro algebra
We consider representations of the Virasoro algebra, a one-dimensional central extension of the Lie algebra of vectorfields on the unit circle. Positive-energy, highest weight and Verma representations are defined and investigated. The Shapovalov form is introduced, and we study Kac formula for its determinant and some consequences for unitarity and degeneracy of irreducible highest weight repr...

متن کاملRepresentations of the Virasoro algebra from lattice models
We investigate in details how the Virasoro algebra appears in the scaling limit of the simplest lattice models of XXZ or RSOS type. Our approach is straightforward but to our knowledge had never been tried so far. We simply formulate a conjecture for the lattice stress-energy tensor motivated by the exact derivation of lattice global Ward identities. We then check that the proper algebraic rela...
متن کاملLie triple derivation algebra of Virasoro-like algebra
Let $mathfrak{L}$ be the Virasoro-like algebra and $mathfrak{g}$ itsderived algebra, respectively. We investigate the structure of the Lie triplederivation algebra of $mathfrak{L}$ and $mathfrak{g}$. We provethat they are both isomorphic to $mathfrak{L}$, which provides twoexamples of invariance under triple derivation.
