Extended Superconformal Algebras on AdS_{3}

arXiv:hep-th/9811002 · doi:10.1016/S0370-2693(99)00070-2

Abstract

We study a supersymmetric extension of the Virasoro algebra on the boundary of the anti-de Sitter space-time AdS_{3}. Using the free field realization of the currents, we show that the world-sheet affine Lie superalgebras osp(1|2)^{(1)}, sl(1|2)^{(1)} and sl(2|2)^{(1)} provide the boundary N=1,2 and 4 extended superconformal algebras, respectively.
