I am looking for a reference that explainstrying to understand this paper. The construction requires the representation theory of infinite-dimensional highest weight modulesunderstanding of the Kac-Moody algebrafollowing concepts in generalthe representation theory of simple and affine Lie algebras:
- The construction of Verma module for a general (not necessarily integral) highest-weight state;
- The character for these modules (the Weyl-Kac character formula cannot be applied for a generic non-integral highest-weight module);
- BRST reduction of affine Lie algebras;
- Quantum Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction;
- ...
I am looking for $\mathfrak{u}(n)$ (Lie algebrasome references that explain these concepts or some detailed examples of unitary group $U(n)$) in particularthe construction for simplest cases. I appreciate any helpcomment.
