Insight Into

In this review we study the elementary structure of Conformal Field Theory in which is a recipe for further studies of critical behavior of various systems in statistical mechanics and quantum field theory. We briefly review CFT in dimensions which plays a prominent role for example in the well-known duality AdS/CFT in string theory where the CFT lives on the AdS boundary. We also describe the mapping of the theory from the cylinder to a complex plane which will help us gain an insight into the process of radial quantization and radial ordering. Finally we will develop the representation of the Virasoro algebra which is the well-known "Verma module".

AbstractGiven a Lie superalgebra $${\mathfrak {g}}$$ g with a subalgebra $${\mathfrak {g}}_{\ge 0}$$ g ≥ 0 , and a finite-dimensional irreducible $${\mathfrak {g}}_{\ge 0}$$ g ≥ 0 -module F, the induced $${\mathfrak {g}}$$ g -module $$M(F)={\mathcal {U}}({\mathfrak {g}})\otimes _{{\mathcal {U}}({\mathfrak {g}}_{\ge 0})}F$$ M ( F ) = U ( g ) ⊗ U ( g ≥ 0 ) F is called a finite Verma module. In the present paper we classify the non-irreducible finite Verma modules over the largest exceptional linearly compact Lie superalgebra $${\mathfrak {g}}=E(5,10)$$ g = E ( 5 , 10 ) with the subalgebra $${\mathfrak {g}}_{\ge 0}$$ g ≥ 0 of minimal codimension. This is done via classification of all singular vectors in the modules M(F). Besides known singular vectors of degree 1,2,3,4 and 5, we discover two new singular vectors, of degrees 7 and 11. We show that the corresponding morphisms of finite Verma modules of degree 1,4,7, and 11 can be arranged in an infinite number of bilateral infinite complexes, which may be viewed as “exceptional” de Rham complexes for E(5, 10).

We study the structure of the generalized 2-dim affine-Virasoro algebra, and describe its automorphism group. Furthermore, we also determine the irreducibility of a Verma module over the generalized 2-dim affine-Virasoro algebra.

Let M be a Verma module over the Lie algebra, sl 2(k), of trace zero 2 × 2 matrices over the algebraically closed field k. We show that the ring, RM, of definable scalars of M is a von Neumann regular ring and that the canonical map from U( sl 2(k)) to RM is an epimorphism of rings. We also describe the Ziegler closure of M. The proofs make use of ideas from the model theory of modules.

Let U be either the classical or quantized universal enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra [Formula: see text] extended over the field of fractions of the Cartan subalgebra. We suggest a PBW basis in U over the extended Cartan subalgebra diagonalizing the contravariant Shapovalov form on generic Verma module. The matrix coefficients of the form are calculated and the inverse form is explicitly constructed.

Let [Formula: see text] be the Lie algebra with basis {Li,j, C|i, j ∈ ℤ} and relations [Li,j, Lk,l] = ((j + 1)k - i(l + 1))Li+k, j+l + iδi, -kδj+l, -2C and [C, Li,j] = 0. It is proved that an irreducible highest weight [Formula: see text]-module is quasifinite if and only if it is a proper quotient of a Verma module. An additive subgroup Γ of 𝔽 corresponds to a Lie algebra [Formula: see text] of Block type. Given a total order ≻ on Γ and a weight Λ, a Verma [Formula: see text]-module M(Λ, ≻) is defined. The irreducibility of M(Λ, ≻) is completely determined.
