Using recent results of the author along with Vander Werf, we present the classification and construction of mirror-twisted modules for N=2 supersymmetric vertex operator superalgebras of the form $V \otimes V$ for the signed transposition mirror map automorphism. In particular, we show that the category of such mirror-twisted sectors for $V\otimes V$ is isomorphic to the category of N=1 Ramond sectors for $V$.
In the present paper, a class of new simple modules over the $N=1$ Ramond algebra are constructed, which are induced from simple modules over some finite dimensional solvable Lie superalgebras. These new modules are simple restricted modules over the $N=1$ Ramond algebra. Combined with the result in \cite{L1}, a classification of simple weak $ψ$-twisted $\bar W(0,c)$-modules under certain conditions is also given. At last, some examples of simple restricted $N=1$ Ramond modules as various versions of Whittaker modules are presented (classical Whittaker modules were studied in \cite{LPX}).
The purpose of this paper is to study Virasoro extensions of the q-deformed Witt Hom-Lie superalgebra. Moreover, we provide the cohomology and deformations of the Ramond Hom-superalgebra and special Ramond Hom-superalgebra.
Twisted modules for N=2 supersymmetric vertex operator superalgebras are classified for the vertex operator superalgebra automorphisms which are lifts of a finite automorphism of the N=2 Neveu-Schwarz Lie superalgebra representation. These include the Ramond-twisted sectors and mirror-twisted sectors for N=2 vertex operator superalgebras, as well as twisted modules related to more general "spectral flow" representations of the N=2 Neveu-Schwarz algebra. We present the construct of twisted modules for free N=2 vertex operator superalgebras for all of the N=2 Neveu-Schwarz Lie superalgebra autom…
We construct and classify $(1 \; 2 \; \cdots \; k)$-twisted $V^{\otimes k}$-modules for $k$ even and $V$ a vertex operator superalgebra. In particular, we show that the category of weak $(1 \; 2 \; \cdots \; k)$-twisted $V^{\otimes k}$-modules for $k$ even is isomorphic to the category of weak parity-twisted $V$-modules. This result shows that in the case of a cyclic permutation of even order, the construction and classification of permutation-twisted modules for tensor product vertex operator superalgebras is fundamentally different than in the case of a cyclic permutation of odd order, as pr…
Each quantum superalgebra is a quasi-triangular Hopf superalgebra, so contains a \textit{universal $R$-matrix} in the tensor product algebra which satisfies the Yang-Baxter equation. Applying the vector representation $π$, which acts on the vector module $V$, to one side of a universal $R$-matrix gives a Lax operator. In this paper a Lax operator is constructed for the $C$-type quantum superalgebras $U_q[osp(2|n)]$. This can in turn be used to find a solution to the Yang-Baxter equation acting on $V \otimes V \otimes W$ where $W$ is an arbitrary $U_q[osp(2|n)]$ module. The case $W=V$ is includ…
Representations of quantum superalgebras provide a natural framework in which to model supersymmetric quantum systems. Each quantum superalgebra, belonging to the class of quasi-triangular Hopf superalgebras, contains a universal R-matrix which automatically satisfies the Yang--Baxter equation. Applying the vector representation, which acts on the vector module V, to the left-hand side of a universal R-matrix gives a Lax operator. In this Communication a Lax operator is constructed for the quantised orthosymplectic superalgebras U_q[osp(m|n)] for all m > 2, n >\geq 0 where n is even. This can …
We introduce a new family of superalgebras, the quantum walled Brauer-Clifford superalgebras ${\mathsf {BC}}_{r,s}(q)$. The superalgebra ${\mathsf {BC}}_{r,s}(q)$ is a quantum deformation of the walled Brauer-Clifford superalgebra ${\mathsf {BC}}_{r,s}$ and a super version of the quantum walled Brauer algebra. We prove that ${\mathsf {BC}}_{r,s}(q)$ is the centralizer superalgebra of the action of ${\mathfrak U}_{q}({\mathfrak q}(n))$ on the mixed tensor space $\mathbf{V}_{q}^{r,s}=\mathbf{V}_{q}^{\otimes r} \otimes (\mathbf{V}_q^*)^{\otimes s}$ when $n \ge r+s$, where ${\mathbf V}_{q}=\mathbb…
In this work we investigate several important aspects of the structure theory of the recently introduced quasi-Hopf superalgebras (QHSAs), which play a fundamental role in knot theory and integrable systems. In particular we introduce the opposite structure and prove in detail (for the graded case) Drinfeld's result that the coproduct $Δ' \equiv (S\otimes S)\cdot T\cdot Δ\cdot S^{-1}$ induced on a QHSA is obtained from the coproduct $Δ$ by twisting. The corresponding ``Drinfeld twist'' $F_D$ is explicitly constructed, as well as its inverse, and we investigate the complete QHSA associated with…
We construct and classify $(1 \; 2\; \cdots \; k)$-twisted $V^{\otimes k}$-modules for $k$ odd and for $V$ a vertex operator superalgebra. This extends previous results of the author, along with Dong and Mason, classifying all permutation-twisted modules for tensor product vertex operator algebras, to the setting of vertex operator superalgebras for odd order permutations. We show why this construction does not extend to the case of permutations of even order in the superalgebra case and how the construction and classification in the even order case is fundamentally different than that for the…
We classify Jet modules for the Lie (super)algebras $\mathfrak{L}=W\ltimes(\mathfrak{g}\otimes\mathbb{C}[t,t^{-1}])$, where $W$ is the Witt algebra and $\mathfrak{g}$ is a Lie superalgebra with an even diagonlizable derivation. Then we give a concept method to classify all simple cuspidal modules for $\mathfrak{L}$ and the map superalgebras, which are of the form $\mathfrak{L}\otimes R$, where $R$ is a Noetherian unital supercommutative associative superalgebra.
This paper is a natural continuation of our previous work on conformal embeddings of vertex algebras [6], [7], [8]. Here we consider conformal embeddings in simple affine vertex superalgebra $V_k(\mathfrak g)$ where $\mathfrak g=\mathfrak g_{\bar 0}\oplus \mathfrak g_{\bar 1}$ is a basic classical simple Lie superalgebras. Let $\mathcal V_k (\mathfrak g_{\bar 0})$ be the subalgebra of $V_k(\mathfrak g)$ generated by $\mathfrak g_{\bar 0}$. We first classify all levels $k$ for which the embedding $\mathcal V_k (\mathfrak g_{\bar 0})$ in $V_k(\mathfrak g)$ is conformal. Next we prove that, for a…
The purpose of this work is to illustrate in a family of interesting examples how to study the representation theory of vertex operator superalgebras by combining the theory of vertex algebra extensions and modular forms. Let $L_k\left(\mathfrak{osp}(1 | 2)\right)$ be the simple affine vertex operator superalgebra of $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$ at an admissible level $k$. We use a Jacobi form decomposition to see that this is a vertex operator superalgebra extension of $L_k(\mathfrak{sl}_2)\otimes \text{Vir}(p, (p+p')/2)$ where $k+3/2=p/(2p')$ and $\text{Vir}(u, v)$ denotes the regular Virasoro vert…
The usual spinor construction from one fermion yields four irreducible representations of the Virasoro algebra with central charge $c = 1/2$. The Neveu-Schwarz (NS) sector is the direct sum of an $h = 0$ and an $h = 1/2$ module, and the Ramond (R) sector is the direct sum of two copies of an $h = 1/16$ module. In addition to the fundamental fermions, which represent a Clifford algebra, and the Virasoro operators, there are infinitely many other vertex operators, in one-to-one correspondence with the vectors (states) in the NS sector. These give the NS sector the structure of a Vertex Operator …
