The Kazhdan-Lusztig conjecture for W-algebras
Koos de Vos, Peter van Driel
The main result in this paper is the character formula for arbitrary irreducible highest weight modules of W algebras. The key ingredient is the functor provided by quantum Hamilto…
The asymptotic dynamics of three-dimensional Einstein gravity with a negative cosmological constant
O. Coussaert, M. Henneaux, P. van Driel
Liouville theory is shown to describe the asymptotic dynamics of three-dimensional Einstein gravity with a negative cosmological constant. This is because (i) Chern-Simons theory w…
The Kazhdan-Lusztig conjecture for finite W-algebras
K. de Vos, P. van Driel
We study the representation theory of finite W-algebras. After introducing parabolic subalgebras to describe the structure of W-algebras, we define the Verma modules and give a con…
Anyons in discrete gauge theories with Chern-Simons terms
F. Alexander Bais, Peter van Driel, Mark de Wild Propitius
We study the effect of a Chern-Simons term in a theory with discrete gauge group H, which in (2+1)-dimensional space time describes (non-abelian) anyons. As in a previous paper, we…
Quantum symmetries in discrete gauge theories
F. Alexander Bais, Peter van Driel, Mark de Wild Propitius
We analyse the fusion, braiding and scattering properties of discrete non-abelian anyons. These occur in (2+1)-dimensional theories where a gauge group G is spontaneously broken do…
