We present affine Lie algebras generated by the supercovariant derivatives and the supersymmetry generators for the left and right moving modes in the doubled space. Chirality is manifest in our doubled space as well as the T-duality symmetry. We present gauge invariant bosonic and superstring actions preserving the two-dimensional diffeomorphism invariance and the kappa-symmetry where doubled spacetime coordinates are chiral fields. The doubled space becomes the usual space by dimensional reduction constraints.

We construct a sequence of Markov processes on the set of dominant weights of an affine Lie algebra $mathfrak{g}$ considering tensor product of irreducible highest weight modules of $mathfrak{g}$ and specializations of the characters involving the Weyl vector $rho$. We show that it converges towards a space-time Brownian motion with a drift, conditioned to remain in a Weyl chamber associated to the root system of $mathfrak{g}$.
In this paper, we study nullity-2 toroidal extended affine Lie algebras in the context of vertex algebras and their $phi$-coordinated modules. Among the main results, we introduce a variant of toroidal extended affine Lie algebras, associate vertex algebras to the variant Lie algebras, and establish a canonical connection between modules for toroidal extended affine Lie algebras and $phi$-coordinated modules for these vertex algebras. Furthermore, by employing some results of Billig, we obtain an explicit realization of irreducible modules for the variant Lie algebras.
To classify the classical field theories with W-symmetry one has to classify the symplectic leaves of the corresponding W-algebra, which are the intersection of the defining constraint and the coadjoint orbit of the affine Lie algebra if the W-algebra in question is obtained by reducing a WZNW model. The fields that survive the reduction will obey non-linear Poisson bracket (or commutator) relations in general. For example the Toda models are well-known theories which possess such a non-linear W-symmetry and many features of these models can only be understood if one investigates the reduction procedure. In this paper we analyze the SL(n,R) case from which the so-called W_n-algebras can be obtained. One advantage of the reduction viewpoint is that it gives a constructive way to classify the symplectic leaves of the W-algebra which we had done in the n=2 case which will correspond to the coadjoint orbits of the Virasoro algebra and for n=3 which case gives rise to the Zamolodchikov algebra. Our method in principle is capable of constructing explicit representatives on each leaf. Another attractive feature of this approach is the fact that the global nature of the W-transformations can be explicitly described. The reduction method also enables one to determine the ``classical highest weight (h. w.) states which are the stable minima of the energy on a W-leaf. These are important as only to those leaves can a highest weight representation space of the W-algebra be associated which contains a ``classical h. w. state.
The notion of rational spin double affine Hecke algebras (sDaHa) and rational double affine Hecke-Clifford algebras (DaHCa) associated to classical Weyl groups are introduced. The basic properties of these algebras such as the PBW basis and Dunkl operator representations are established. An algebra isomorphism relating the rational DaHCa to the rational sDaHa is obtained. We further develop a link between the usual rational Cherednik algebra and the rational sDaHa by introducing a notion of rational covering double affine Hecke algebras.
We revisit partition functions of closed strings on toroidal backgrounds, including their $mathbb{Z}_N$ shift orbifolds in the formalism where the dimension of the target space is doubled to make T-duality manifest. In such a T-duality covariant formalism, the constraint equation imposes a form of chiral factorization. Our computation furnishes a non-trivial consistency check for the quantum worldsheet theory of the doubled sigma model, when strings are placed on general toroidal backgrounds. The topological term that mixes the physical space and its T-dual is crucial in demonstrating that chiral factorization works, and that we obtain the correct partition function after imposing the constraints. Finally, we discuss how our results extend to $mathcal{N}=1$ worldsheet supersymmetry and string worldsheets of higher genus.
