In this paper, we shall classify ``quadratic'' conformal superalgebras by certain compatible pairs of a Lie superalgebra and a Novikov superalgebra.Four general constructions of such pairs are given. Moreover, we shall classify such pairs related to simple Novikov algebras.
The purpose of this paper is to introduce and study super Hom-Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras and Hom-Lie conformal superalgebras. In this paper, we provide different ways for constructing super Hom-Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras and obtain some infinite-dimensional Hom-Lie superalgebras from affinization of super Hom-Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras. Also, we give a general construction of Hom-Lie conformal superalgebras from Hom-Lie superalgebras and establish equivalence of quadratic Hom-Lie conformal superalgebras and super Hom-Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras. Finally, we characterize one-dimensional cent…
In this paper, we construct six families of infinite simple conformal superalgebra of finite growth based on our earlier work on constructing vertex operator superalgebras from graded assocaitive algebras. Three subfamilies of these conformal superalgebras are generated by simple Jordan algebras of types A, B and C in a certain sense.
We study quadratic Lie conformal superalgebras associated with No\-vikov superalgebras. For every Novikov superalgebra $(V,\circ)$, we construct an enveloping differential Poisson superalgebra $U(V)$ with a derivation $d$ such that $u\circ v = ud(v)$ and $\{u,v\} = u\circ v - (-1)^{|u||v|} v\circ u$ for $u,v\in V$. The latter means that the commutator Gelfand--Dorfman superalgebra of $V$ is special. Next, we prove that every quadratic Lie conformal superalgebra constructed on a finite-dimensional special Gel'fand--Dorfman superalgebra has a finite faithful conformal representation. This statem…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of BiHom-Lie conformal superalgebras. We develop its representation theory and define the cohomology group with coefficients in a module. Finally, we introduce conformal derivations of BiHom-Lie conformal superalgebras and study some of their properties.
We classify simple finite Jordan conformal superalgebras and establish preliminary results for the classification of simple finite Jordan pseudoalgebras.
Fix a positive integer number $r$. A class of $r$-dim Lie conformal superalgebras named $r$-dim $i$-linear Lie conformal superalgebras are studied for $1\leq i \leq r$. We present an equivalent characterization of this class of Lie conformal superalgebras in $r$ dimension. Moreover, by this equivalent characterization, several constructions and examples are given.
In this paper, we present a formal variational calculus of super functions in one real variable and find the conditions for a "matrix differential operator" to be a Hamiltonian superoperator. Moreover, we prove that conformal superalgebras are equivalent to certain Hamiltonian superoperators.
We revisit the free field construction of the deformed $W$-superalgebras ${\cal W}_{q,t}(\mathfrak{sl}(2|1))$ by J. Ding and B. Feigin, {\it Contemp.Math.}{\bf 248}, 83-108 (1998), where the basic $W$-current and screening currents have been found. In this paper we introduce higher $W$-currents and obtain a closed set of quadratic relations among them. These relations are independent of the choice of Dynkin diagrams for the superalgebra $\mathfrak{sl}(2|1)$, though the screening currents are not. This allows us to define ${\cal W}_{q,t}(\mathfrak{sl}(2|1))$ by generators and relations.
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…
Quantum Yangian symmetry in several sigma models with supergroup or supercoset as target is established. Starting with a two-dimensional conformal field theory that has current symmetry of a Lie superalgebra with vanishing Killing form we construct non-local charges and compute their properties. Yangian axioms are satisfied, except that the Serre relations only hold for a subsector of the space of fields. Yangian symmetry implies that correlation functions of fields in this sector satisfy Ward identities. We then show that this symmetry is preserved by certain perturbations of the conformal fi…
The loop super-Virasoro conformal superalgebra $\mathfrak{cls}$ associated with the loop super-Virasoro algebra is constructed in the present paper. The conformal superderivation algebra of $\mathfrak{cls}$ is completely determined, which is shown to consist of inner superderivations. And nontrivial free and free $\mathbb{Z}$-graded $\mathfrak{cls}$-modules of rank two are classified. We also give a classification of irreducible free $\mathfrak{cls}$-modules of rank two and all irreducible submodules of each free $\mathbb{Z}$-graded $\mathfrak{cls}$-module of rank two.
We find the free field construction of the basic $W$-current and screening currents for the deformed $W$-superalgebra ${\cal W}_{q,t}\bigl(A(M,N)\bigr)$ associated with Lie superalgebra of type $A(M,N)$. Using this free field construction, we introduce the higher $W$-currents and obtain a closed set of quadratic relations among them. These relations are independent of the choice of Dynkin-diagrams for the Lie superalgebra $A(M,N)$, though the screening currents are not. This allows us to define ${\cal W}_{q,t}\bigl(A(M,N)\bigr)$ by generators and relations.
We distinguish a class of irreducible finite representations of conformal Lie (super)algebras. These representations (called universally defined) are the simplest ones from the computational point of view: a universally defined representation of a conformal Lie (super)algebra $L$ is completely determined by commutation relations of $L$ and by the requirement of associative locality of generators. We describe such representations for conformal superalgebras $W_n$, $n\ge 0$, with respect to a natural set of generators. We also consider the problem for superalgebras $K_n$. In particular, we find …

In this paper we classify, under certain restrictions, all homogeneous conformal subalgebras $\goth L$ of a lattice vertex superalgebra $V_Λ$ corresponding to an integer lattice $Λ$. We require that $\goth L$ is graded by an almost finite root system $Δ\subset Λ$ and that $\goth L$ is stable under the action of the Heisenberg conformal algebra $\goth H\subset V_Λ$. We also describe the root systems of these subalgebras. The key ingredient of this classification is an infinite type conformal algebra $\goth K$ obtained by the Tits-Kantor-Koeher construction from a certain Jordan conformal triple…
We give character formulae for the positive energy unitary irreducible representations of the N-extended D=4 conformal superalgebras su(2,2/N). Using these we also derive decompositions of long superfields as they descend to the unitarity threshold. These results are also applicable to irreps of the complex Lie superalgebras sl(4/N). Our derivations use results from the representation theory of su(2,2/N) developed already in the 80s.
The algebraic structure on the subspace of the quasi-primary vectors given by the projection of the (n) products of a conformal superalgebra is formulated. As an application the complete list of simple physical conformal superalgebras is given. The list contains a one-parameter family of superconformal algebras with 4 supercharges that is simple for general values.
In this paper, simplicity of quadratic Lie conformal algebras are investigated. From the point view of the corresponding Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras, some sufficient conditions and necessary conditions to ensure simplicity of quadratic Lie conformal algebras are presented. By these observations, we present several classes of new infinite simple Lie conformal algebras. These results will be useful for classification purposes.
In this paper, we study a class of Leibniz conformal algebras called quadratic Leibniz conformal algebras. An equivalent characterization of a Leibniz conformal algebra $R=\mathbb{C}[\partial]V$ through three algebraic operations on $V$ are given. By this characterization, several constructions of quadratic Leibniz conformal algebras are presented. Moreover, one-dimensional central extensions of quadratic Leibniz conformal algebras are considered using some bilinear forms on $V$. In particular, we also study one-dimensional Leibniz central extensions of quadratic Lie conformal algebras.
In this note we introduce the notion of $T^*-$extension $T^*{\mathfrak g}$ of a Lie superalgebra ${\mathfrak g}$, i.e. an extension of ${\mathfrak g}$ by its dual space ${\mathfrak g}^*$. The natural pairing induces on $T^*{\mathfrak g}$ an even supersymmetric nondegenerate bilinear form $B$ which is invariant ($B([X,Y],Z)=B(X,[Y,Z])$ for all $X,Y,Z \in T^*{\mathfrak g}$), i.e. the structure of a quadratic (or metrised or orthogonal) Lie superalgebra. These extensions can be classified by the third even scalar cohomology group of ${\mathfrak g}$. Moreover, we show that all finite-dimensional q…
