The Low-level Spectrum of the $W_{3}$ String

H. Lu, B. E. W. Nilsson, C. N. Pope +2

We investigate the spectrum of physical states in the $W_{3}$ string theory, up to level 2 for a multi-scalar string, and up to level 4 for the two-scalar string. The (open) $W_{3}$ st…

Physical States in the $W_{3}$ String

C. N. Pope

We present a review of some of the recent developments in the study of the $W_{3}$ string. One of the interesting features of the theory is that the physical spectrum includes states…

Discrete States in the $W_{3}$ String

C. N. Pope, E. Sezgin, K. S. Stelle +1

We construct the low-lying discrete states of the two-scalar $W_{3}$ string. This includes states that correspond to the analogues of the ground ring generators of the ordinary two-d…

A Note on Representations of the $w_{\infty}$ Algebra

C. N. Pope, X. J. Wang

We explicitly demonstrate that the unitary representations of the $w_{\infty}$ algebra and its truncations are just the unitary representations of the Virasoro algebra.

Review of W Strings

C. N. Pope

We review some of the recent developments in the construction of $W$ -string theories. These are generalisations of ordinary strings in which the two-dimensional ``worldsheet'' theo…

On Realisations of W Algebras

H. Lu, C. N. Pope

It has been known for some time that $W$ algebras can be realised in terms of an energy-momentum tensor together with additional free scalar fields. Some recent results have shown…

New Realisations of W Algebras and W Strings

H. Lu, C. N. Pope, S. Schrans +1

We discuss new realisations of $W$ algebras in which the currents are expressed in terms of two arbitrary commuting energy-momentum tensors together with a set of free scalar field…

On Sibling and Exceptional W Strings

H. Lu, C. N. Pope, S. Schrans +1

We discuss the physical spectrum for $W$ strings based on the algebras $B_{n}$ , $D_{n}$ , $E_{6}$ , $E_{7}$ and $E_{8}$ . For a simply-laced $W$ string, we find a connection with the $(h, h + 1)$ …

The Complete Spectrum of the $W_{N}$ String

H. Lu, C. N. Pope, S. Schrans +1

We obtain the complete physical spectrum of the $W_{N}$ string, for arbitrary $N$ . The $W_{N}$ constraints freeze $N - 2$ coordinates, while the remaining coordinates appear in the curre…

$S L (\infty, R)$ Symmetry of $W_{\infty}$ Gravity

C. N. Pope

Two-dimensional gravity in the light-cone gauge was shown by Polyakov to exhibit an underlying $S L (2, R)$ Kac-Moody symmetry, which may be used to express the energy-momentum tensor…
