On the generalized Miura transformation

preprint1992arXivOpen access

Abstract

By generalizing the Miura transformation for $\Ww_N$ to other classical $\Ww$ algebras obtained by hamiltonian reduction, we find realisations of these algebras in terms of relatively simple non-abelian current algebras, e.g. sl(2)^×u(1)^N\widehat{sl(2)}\times \widehat{u(1)}^N, generalizing the free field realisation of $\Ww_N$. As an example, we present the sl(2)^×u(1)^\widehat{sl(2)}\times \widehat{u(1)} realisation of $\Ww_3^2$, which we also quantize. By a specific example, we also show how the realisation of $\Ww_N$ with the currents of $\Ww_{N-1}$ and a free boson can be generalized to certain classes of ``extended'' $\Ww_N$ algebras.
