We show that subsingular vectors exist in Verma modules over W(2,2), and present a subquotient structure of these modules. We prove conditions for irreducibility of a tensor product of intermediate series module with the highest weight module. Relations to intertwining operators over vertex operator algebra associated to W(2,2) is discussed. Also, we study a tensor product of intermediate series and highest weight module over the twisted Heisenberg-Virasoro algebra, and present series of irreducible modules with infinite-dimensional weight spaces.
We study the representation theory of the N=1 super Heisenberg-Virasoro vertex algebra at level zero, which extends the previous work on the Heisenberg-Virasoro vertex algebra arXiv:math/0201314, arXiv:1405.1707 and arXiv:1703.00531 to the super case. We calculated all characters of irreducible highest weight representations by investigating certain Fock space representations. Quite surprisingly, we found that the maximal submodules of certain Verma modules are generated by subsingular vectors. The formulas for singular and subsingular vectors are obtained using screening operators appearing i…
Infinite dimensional geometry of $M_1=Diff_+(S^1)/PSL(2,R)$ and $q_R$-conformal symmetries. II. Geometric quantization and hidden symmetries of Verma modules over Virasoro algebra
Let $\mathfrak g(G,λ)$ denote the deformed generalized Heisenberg-Virasoro algebra related to a complex parameter $λ\neq-1$ and an additive subgroup $G$ of $\mathbb C$. For a total order on $G$ that is compatible with addition, a Verma module over $\mathfrak g(G,λ)$ is defined. In this paper, we completely determine the irreducibility of these Verma modules.
Let $\preceq$ be a compatible total order on the additive group $\mathbb{Z}^2$, and $L$ be the rank two Heisenberg-Virasoro algebra. For any $\mathbf{c}=(c_1,c_2,c_3,c_4) \in \mathbb{C}^4$, we define $\mathbb{Z}^2$-graded Verma module $M(\mathbf{c}, \preceq)$ for the Lie algebra $L$. A necessary and sufficient condition for the Verma module $M(\mathbf{c}, \preceq)$ to be irreducible is provided. Moreover, the maximal $\mathbb{Z}^2$-graded submodules of the Verma module $M(\mathbf{c}, \preceq)$ are characterized when $M(\mathbf{c}, \preceq)$ is reducible.
Galilean $W_3$ vertex operator algebra $\mathcal GW_3(c_L,c_M)$ is constructed as a universal enveloping vertex algebra of certain non-linear Lie conformal algebra. It is proved that this algebra is simple by using determinant formula of the vacuum module. Reducibility criterion for Verma modules is given, and the existence of subsingular vectors demonstrated. Free field realisation of $\mathcal GW_3(c_L,c_M)$ and its highest weight modules is obtained within a rank 4 lattice VOA.
This paper is a continuation of arXiv:1405.1707. We present certain new applications and generalizations of the free field realization of the twisted Heisenberg-Virasoro algebra ${\mathcal H}$ at level zero. We find explicit formulas for singular vectors in certain Verma modules. A free field realization of self-dual modules for ${\mathcal H}$ is presented by combining a bosonic construction of Whittaker modules from arXiv:1409.5354 with a construction of logarithmic modules for vertex algebras. As an application, we prove that there exists a non-split self-extension of irreducible self-dual m…
The Lie algebra $sl_2 ( \mathbb{C} )$ may be regarded in a natural way as a subalgebra of the infinite-dimensional Virasoro Lie algebra, and this suggests there may be connections between the representation theory of the two algebras. In this paper, we explore the restriction to $sl_2 ( \mathbb{C} )$ of certain induced modules for the Virasoro algebra. Specifically, we consider Virasoro modules induced from so-called polynomial subalgebras, and we show that the restriction of these modules results in twisted versions of familiar modules such as Verma modules and Whittaker modules.
In this paper we study the representations of loop Affine-Virasoro Algebras. As they have canonical triangular decomposition, we define Verma modules and its irreducible quotients. We give necessary and sufficient condition for an irreducible highest weight module to have finite dimensional weight spaces. We prove that an irreducible integrable module is either an highest weight module or a lowest weight module whenever the canonical central element acts non trivially. At the end we construct Affine central operators for each integer and they commute with the action of the Affine Lie Algebra.
Let $\mathcal{O}_{25}$ be the vertex algebraic braided tensor category of finite-length modules for the Virasoro Lie algebra at central charge $25$ whose composition factors are the irreducible quotients of reducible Verma modules. We show that $\mathcal{O}_{25}$ is rigid and that its simple objects generate a semisimple tensor subcategory that is braided tensor equivalent to an abelian $3$-cocycle twist of the category of finite-dimensional $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-modules. We also show that this $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-type subcategory is braid-reversed tensor equivalent to a similar category for the Vir…
Let $\mathcal{O}_c$ be the category of finite-length modules for the Virasoro Lie algebra at central charge $c$ whose composition factors are irreducible quotients of reducible Verma modules. For any $c\in\mathbb{C}$, this category admits the vertex algebraic braided tensor category structure of Huang, Lepowsky, and Zhang. Here, we begin the detailed study of $\mathcal{O}_{c_{p,q}}$ where $c_{p,q} = 1-\frac{6(p-q)^2}{pq}$ for relatively prime integers $p, q \geq 2$; in conformal field theory, $\mathcal{O}_{c_{p,q}}$ corresponds to a logarithmic extension of the central charge $c_{p,q}$ Virasor…
This work concerns the representation theory of the affine Lie algebra $A_1^{(1)}$ at fractional level and its links to the representation theory of the Virasoro algebra. We introduce affine Kac modules as certain finitely generated submodules of Wakimoto modules. We conjecture the existence of several classes of staggered $A_1^{(1)}$-modules and provide evidence in the form of detailed examples. We extend the applicability of the Goddard-Kent-Olive coset construction to include the affine Kac and staggered modules. We introduce an exact functor between the associated category of $A_1^{(1)}$-m…
