Realisations of W3 Symmetry

چکیده
We perform a systematic investigation of free-scalar realisations of the Zamolodchikov W 3 algebra in which the operator product of two spin-three generators contains a non-zero operator of spin four which has vanishing norm. This generalises earlier work where such an operator was required to be absent. By allowing this spin-four null operator we obtain several realisations of the W 3 algebra both in terms of two scalars as well as in terms of an arbitrary number n of free scalars. Our analysis is complete for the case of two-scalar realisations.

Higher - spin Realisations of the Bosonic String
It has been shown that certain W algebras can be linearised by the inclusion of a spin–1 current. This provides a way of obtaining new realisations of the W algebras. Recently such new realisations of W3 were used in order to embed the bosonic string in the critical and non-critical W3 strings. In this paper, we consider similar embeddings in W2,4 and W2,6 strings. The linearisation of W2,4 is ...
متن کاملNew Realisations of Minimal Models and the Structure of W-strings
The quantization of a free boson whose momentum satisfies a cubic constraint leads to a c = 1 2 conformal field theory with a BRST symmetry. The theory also has a W∞ symmetry in which all the generators except the stress-tensor are BRST-exact and so topological. The BRST cohomology includes states of conformal dimensions 0, 1 16 , 1 2 , together with ‘copies’ of these states obtained by acting ...
متن کاملCreating 3, 4, 6 and 10-dimensional spacetime from W3 symmetry
Article history: Received 28 March 2017 Accepted 24 April 2017 Available online 26 April 2017 Editor: J. Hisano We describe a model where breaking of W3 symmetry will lead to the emergence of time and subsequently of space. Surprisingly the simplest such models which lead to higher dimensional spacetimes are based on the four “magical” Jordan algebras of 3 × 3 Hermitian matrices with real, comp...
متن کامل2 5 Fe b 20 03 Z 3 symmetry and W 3 algebra in lattice vertex operator algebras
The W3 algebra of central charge 6/5 is realized as a subalgebra of the vertex operator algebra V2A2 associated with a lattice of type √ 2A2 by using both coset construction and orbifold theory. It is proved that W3 is rational. Its irreducible modules are classified and constructed explicitly. The characters of those irreducible modules are also computed.
متن کاملF-theory Duals of M-theory on G2 Manifolds from Mirror Symmetry
Using mirror pairs (M3,W3) in type II superstring compactifications on Calabi-Yau threefols, we study, geometrically, F-theory duals of M-theory on seven manifolds with G2 holonomy. We first develop a new way for getting Landau Ginzburg (LG) CalabiYau threefols W3, embedded in four complex dimensional toric varieties, mirror to sigma model on toric Calabi-Yau threefolds M3. This method gives di...
