Comments on the Deformed W_N Algebra

We obtain an explicit expression for the defining relation of the deformed W_N algebra, DWA(^sl_N)_{q,t}. Using this expression we can show that, in the q-->1 limit, DWA(^sl_N)_{q,t} with t=e^{-2πi/N}q^{(k+N)/N} reduces to the sl_N-version of the Lepowsky-Wilson's Z-algebra of level k, ZA(^sl_N)_k. In other words DWA(^sl_N)_{q,t} with t=e^{-2πi/N}q^{(k+N)/N} can be considered as a q-deformation of ZA(^sl_N)_k. In the appendix given by H.Awata, S.Odake and J.Shiraishi, we present an interesting relation between DWA(^sl_N)_{q,t} and ζ-function regularization.

A Quantum Deformation of the Virasoro Algebra and the Macdonald Symmetric Functions

A quantum deformation of the Virasoro algebra is defined. The Kac determinants at arbitrary levels are conjectured. We construct a bosonic realization of the quantum deformed Virasoro algebra. Singular vectors are expressed by the Macdonald symmetric functions. This is proved by constructing screening currents acting on the bosonic Fock space.

Supersymmetric extension of the sine-Gordon theory with integrable boundary interactions

Integrability and supersymmetry of the supersymmetric extension of the sine-Gordon theory on a half-line are examined and the boundary potential which preserves both the integrability and supersymmetry on the bulk is derived. It appears that unlike the boundary bosonic sine-Gordon theory, integrability and supersymmetry strongly restrict the form and parameters of the boundary potential, so that no free parameter in the boundary term is allowed up to a choice of signs.

Continuum Limit of Spin-1 Chain (the only change is added references)

We study the continuum limit of the spin-1 chain in the non-Abelian bosonization approach of Affleck and show that the Hamiltonian of integrable spin-1 chain yields the Lagrangian of supersymmetric sine-Gordon model in the zero lattice spacing limit. We also show that the quantum group generators of the spin-1 chain give non-local charges of the supersymmetric sine-Gordon theory.

Unitary Representations of $W$ Infinity Algebras

We study the irreducible unitary highest weight representations, which are obtained from free field realizations, of $W$ infinity algebras ($W_{\infty}$, $W_{1+\infty}$, $W_{\infty}^{1,1}$, $W_{\infty}^M$, $W_{1+\infty}^N$, $W_{\infty}^{M,N}$) with central charges ($2$, $1$, $3$, $2M$, $N$, $2M+N$). The characters of these representations are computed. We construct a new extended superalgebra $W_{\infty}^{M,N}$, whose bosonic sector is $W_{\infty}^M\oplus W_{1+\infty}^N$. Its representations obtained from a free field realization with central charge $2M+N$, are classified into two classes: continuous series and discrete series. For the former there exists a supersymmetry, but for the latter a supersymmetry exists only for $M=N$.
