W-algebras of negative rank
نویسنده
چکیده
Recently it has been discovered that the W-algebras (orbifold of) WDn 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.

Weighted Convolution Measure Algebras Characterized by Convolution Algebras
The weighted semigroup algebra Mb (S, w) is studied via its identification with Mb (S) together with a weighted algebra product *w so that (Mb (S, w), *) is isometrically isomorphic to (Mb (S), *w). This identification enables us to study the relation between regularity and amenability of Mb (S, w) and Mb (S), and improve some old results from discrete to general case.
متن کاملFree Heyting Algebras: Revisited
We use coalgebraic methods to describe finitely generated free Heyting algebras. Heyting algebras are axiomatized by rank 0-1 axioms. In the process of constructing free Heyting algebras we first apply existing methods to weak Heyting algebras—the rank 1 reducts of Heyting algebras—and then adjust them to the mixed rank 0-1 axioms. On the negative side, our work shows that one cannot use arbitr...
متن کاملRationality of the vertex algebra V + L when L is a nondegenerate even lattice of arbitrary rank
In this paper we prove that the vertex algebra V + L is rational if L is a negative definite even lattice of finite rank , or if L is a non-degenerate even lattice of a finite rank that is neither positive definite nor negative definite. In particular, for such even lattices L, we show that the Zhu algebras of the vertex algebras V + L are semisimple. This extends the result of Abe from [A2] wh...
متن کاملRings of Low Rank with a Standard Involution
We consider the problem of classifying (possibly noncommutative) R-algebras of low rank over an arbitrary base ring R. We first classify algebras by their degree, and we relate the class of algebras of degree 2 to algebras with a standard involution. We then investigate a class of exceptional rings of degree 2 which occur in every rank n ≥ 1 and show that they essentially characterize all algeb...
متن کاملThe H Algebras of Higher Rank Graphs
We begin the study of a new class of operator algebras that arise from higher rank graphs. Every higher rank graph generates a Fock space Hilbert space and creation operators which are partial isometries acting on the space. We call the weak operator topology closed algebra generated by these operators a higher rank semigroupoid algebra. A number of examples are discussed in detail, including t...
