Finite $W$ symmetry in finite dimensional integrable systems | | T. Tjin
; | | Date: |
8 Oct 1992 | | Subject: | hep-th | | Abstract: | By generalizing the Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction a large class of $W$ algebras can be constructed. We introduce ’finite’ versions of these algebras by Poisson reducing Kirillov Poisson structures on simple Lie algebras. A closed and coordinate free formula for the reduced Poisson structure is given. These finitely generated algebras play the same role in the theory of $W$ algebras as the simple Lie algebras in the theory of Kac-Moody algebras and will therefore presumably play an important role in the representation theory of $W$ algebras. We give an example leading to a quadratic $sl_2$ algebra. The finite dimensional unitary representations of this algebra are discussed and it is shown that they have Fock realizations. It is also shown that finite dimensional generalized Toda theories are reductions of a system describing a free particle on a group manifold. These finite Toda systems have the non-linear finite $W$ symmetry discussed above.
