Linearized Form of the Generic Affine-Virasoro Action
J. de Boer, K. Clubok, M. B. Halpern
Halpern and Yamron have given a Lorentz, conformal, and Diff S-invariant world-sheet action for the generic irrational conformal field theory, but the action is highly non-line…
On the Cohomology of the Noncritical -string
E. Bergshoeff, J. de Boer, M. de Roo +1
We investigate the cohomology structure of a general noncritical -string. We do this by introducing a new basis in the Hilbert space in which the BRST operator splits into a `…
A Class of W-Algebras with Infinitely Generated Classical Limit
J. de Boer, L. Feher, A. Honecker
There is a relatively well understood class of deformable W-algebras, resulting from Drinfeld-Sokolov (DS) type reductions of Kac-Moody algebras, which are Poisson bracket algebras…
The Relation between Quantum W algebras and Lie algebras
Jan de Boer, Tjark Tjin
By quantizing the generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction scheme for arbitrary embeddings we show that a large set of quantum W algebras can be viewed as (BRST) coho…
