AbstractVirasoro-toroidal algebras, , are semi-direct products of toroidal algebras and the Virasoro algebra. The toroidal algebras are, in turn, multi-loop versions of affine Kac-Moody algebras. Let Γ be an extension of a simply laced lattice by a hyperbolic lattice of rank two. There is a Fock space V(Γ) corresponding to Γ with a decomposition as a complex vector space: V(Γ) = . Fabbri and Moody have shown that when m ≠ 0, K(m) is an irreducible representation of . In this paper we produce a filtration of -submodules of K(0). When L is an arbitrary geometric lattice and n is a positive integer, we construct a Virasoro-Heisenberg algebra . Let Q be an extension of by a degenerate rank one lattice. We determine the components of V(Γ) that are irreducible -modules and we show that the reducible components have a filtration of -submodules with completely reducible quotients. Analogous results are obtained for . These results complement and extend results of Fabbri and Moody.

We construct a Heisenberg algebra in Bargmann-Fock space in the presence of natural cutoffs encoded as minimal length, minimal momentum, and maximal momentum through a generalized uncertainty principle.

A new two-parameter quadratic deformation of the quantum oscillator algebra and its one-parameter deformed Heisenberg subalgebra are considered. An infinite-dimensional Fock module representation is presented, which at roots of unity contains singular vectors and so is reducible to a finite-dimensional representation. The semicyclic, nilpotent and unitary representations are discussed. Witten's deformation of sl 2 and some deformed infinite-dimensional algebras are constructed from the 1d Heisenberg algebra generators. The deformation of the centerless Virasoro algebra at roots of unity is mentioned. Finally the SL q(2) symmetry of the deformed Heisenberg algebra is explicitly constructed.

We study the representation theory of the [Formula: see text] super Heisenberg–Virasoro vertex algebra at level zero, which extends the previous work on the Heisenberg–Virasoro vertex algebra [D. Adamović and G. Radobolja, Free field realization of the twisted Heisenberg–Virasoro algebra at level zero and its applications, J. Pure Appl. Algebra 219(10) (2015) 4322–4342; D. Adamović and G. Radobolja, Self-dual and logarithmic representations of the twisted Heisenberg–Virasoro algebra at level zero, Commun. Contemp. Math. 21(2) (2019) 1850008; Y. Billig, Representations of the twisted Heisenberg–Virasoro algebra at level zero, Can. Math. Bull. 46(4) (2003) 529–537] to the super case. We calculated all characters of irreducible highest weight representations by investigating certain Fock space representations. Quite surprisingly, we found that the maximal submodules of certain Verma modules are generated by subsingular vectors. The formulas for singular and subsingular vectors are obtained using screening operators appearing in a study of certain logarithmic vertex algebras [D. Adamović and A. Milas, On W-algebras associated to [Formula: see text] minimal models and their representations, Int. Math. Res. Notices 2010(20) (2010) 3896–3934].

AbstractA Lie algebra is called a Heisenberg algebra if its centre coincides with its derived algebra and is one-dimensional. When is infinite-dimensional, Kac, Kazhdan, Lepowsky, and Wilson have proved that -modules that satisfy certain conditions are direct sums of a canonical irreducible submodule. This is an algebraic analogue of the Stone-von Neumann theorem. In this paper, we extract quantum Heisenberg algebras, q(), from the quantum affine algebras whose vertex representations were constructed by Frenkel and Jing. We introduce the canonical irreducible q()-module Mq and a class Cq of q()-modules that are shown to have the Stone-von Neumann property. The only restriction we place on the complex number q is that it is not a square root of 1. If q1 and q2 are not roots of unity, or are both primitive m-th roots of unity, we construct an explicit isomorphism between q1() and q2(). If q1 is a primitive m-th root of unity, m odd, q2 a primitive 2m-th or a primitive 4m-th root of unity, we also construct an explicit isomorphism between q1() and q2().

In a recent paper, using a splitting formula for the multi-dimensional Heisenberg group, we derived a formula for the vacuum characteristic function (Fourier transform) of quantum random variables defined as self-adjoint sums of Fock space operators satisfying the multidimensional Heisenberg Lie algebra commutation relations. In this paper we use that formula to compute the characteristic function of quantum random variables defined as suitably truncated sums of the Virasoro algebra generators. By relating the structure of the Virasoro fields to the quadratic quantization program and using techniques developed in that context we prove that the vacuum distributions of the truncated Virasoro fields are products of independent, but not identically distributed, shifted Gamma-random variables.

A parabosonic string is assumed to propagate in a total noncommutative target phase space. Three models are investigated: open strings, open strings between two parallel [Formula: see text] branes and closed ones. This leads to a generalization of the oscillators algebra of the string and the corresponding Virasoro algebra. The mass operator is no more diagonal in the ordinary Fock space, a redefinition of this later will modify the mass spectrum, so that, neither massless vector state nor massless tensor state are present. The restoration of the photon and the graviton imposes specific forms of the noncommutativity parameter matrices, partially removes the mass degeneracy and gives new additional ones. In particular, for the [Formula: see text]-branes, one can have a tachyon free model with a photon state when more strict conditions on these parameters are imposed, while, the match level condition of the closed string model induces the reduction of the spectrum.
