Fall 2023
The affine vertex superalgebra A=L^1(D(2,1;-v/w)) plays a key role as the geometric Langlands kernel VOA for SVOAs associated to so(3), osp(1|2) and other rank one Lie superalgbras. Since D(2,1;a) is an extension of the direct sum of 3 copies of sl(2), A can be naturally realized as an...
