$(d,\sigma)$-twisted Affine-Virasoro superalgebras

Abstract

For any finite dimensional Lie superalgebra $\dot{\mathfrak{g}}$ (maybe a Lie algebra) with an even derivation $d$ and a finite order automorphism $\sigma$ that commutes with $d$, we introduce the $(d,\sigma)$-twisted Affine-Virasoro superalgebra $\mathfrak{L}=\mathfrak{L}(\dot{\mathfrak{g}},d,\sigma)$ and determine its universal central extension $\hat{\mathfrak{L}}=\hat{\mathfrak{L}}(\dot{\mathfrak{g}},d,\sigma)$. This is a huge class of infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebras. Such Lie superalgebras consist of many new and well-known Lie algebras and superalgebras, including the Affine-Virasoro superalgebras, the twisted Heisenberg-Virasoro algebra, the mirror Heisenberg-Virasoro algebra, the W-algebra $W(2,2)$, the gap-$p$ Virasoro algebras, the Fermion-Virasoro algebra, the $N=1$ BMS superalgebra, the planar Galilean conformal algebra. Then we give the classification of cuspidal $A\mathfrak{L}$-modules by using the weighting functor from $U(\mathfrak{h})$-free modules to weight modules. Consequently, we give the classification of simple cuspidal $\mathfrak{L}$-modules by using the $A$-cover method. Finally, all simple quasi-finite modules over $\mathfrak{L}$ and $\hat{\mathfrak{L}}$ are classified. Our results recover many known Lie superalgebra results from mathematics and mathematical physics, and give many new Lie superalgebras.

Quasi-Whittaker supermodules over Lie superalgebras

In this paper, we develop a general theory of quasi-Whittaker supermodules over Lie superalgebras induced from an arbitrary ideal. We determine the quasi-Whittaker vectors in universal supermodules, establish an irreducibility criterion, and classify several families of irreducible supermodules. The odd part produces a new irreducibility phenomenon absent from the Lie algebra setting. As applications, we determine all irreducible quasi-Whittaker supermodules over the $N=1$ super Schr\"odinger algebra and the $N=1$ $\frac{3}{2}$-conformal Galilei superalgebra, and over the complete spectrum-generating superalgebra in a special case.

Rankin--Selberg integrals of opposite conductor--one newforms

Let $F$ be a nonarchimedean local field of characteristic zero and let $n\geq2$. For $r=n,n+1$, let $\Pi_r$ be an irreducible tempered representation of ${\rm GL}_r(F)$ of conductor one and with trivial central character. We evaluate the Rankin--Selberg integral of opposite newforms in $\Pi_{n+1}\times \Pi_n$ explicitly and show that its central value is nonzero. As an application, this implies a case of Disegni--Zhang's conjecture on the nonvanishing of local relative characters.

Obstructions to Jacobi-Finiteness of Quivers with Potentials

We show that Jacobi-finite potentials need not exist on finite $2$-acyclic quivers. Our main tool is a matrix-valued Golod--Shafarevich--Vinberg inequality for quotients of completed path algebras by finitely many, possibly nonhomogeneous, topological relations. Applied to cyclic derivatives, it yields a potential-dependent obstruction to the finite-dimensionality of completed Jacobian algebras. We then construct a purely quiver-level criterion excluding every Jacobi-finite potential on a given quiver, and exhibit a family of quivers for which every potential has an infinite-dimensional Jacobian algebra.
