The super W algebra Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • We construct a higher-spin N = 2 superalgebra whose bosonic sector is W W1+. It can be realised in terms of bilinear currents involving free complex bosonic and fermionic fields. We also discuss the spectral flow, and various truncations. 1990.
