We describe a Nichols-algebra-motivated construction of an octuplet chiral algebra that is a W_3-counterpart of the triplet algebra of (p,1) logarithmic models of two-dimensional conformal field theory.

We rederive a popular nonsemisimple fusion algebra in the braided context, from a Nichols algebra. Together with the decomposition that we find for the product of simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules, this strongly suggests that the relevant Nichols algebra furnishes an equivalence with the triplet W-algebra in the (p,1) logarithmic models of conformal field theory. For this, the category of Yetter-Drinfeld modules is to be regarded as an textit{entwined} category (the one with monodromy, but not with braiding).
Let $frak{g}$ be a finite dimensional simple complex Lie algebra and $U=U_q(frak{g})$ the quantized enveloping algebra (in the sense of Jantzen) with $q$ being generic. In this paper, we show that the center $Z(U_q(frak{g}))$ of the quantum group $U_q(frak{g})$ is isomorphic to a monoid algebra, and that $Z(U_q(frak{g}))$ is a polynomial algebra if and only if $frak{g}$ is of type $A_1, B_n, C_n, D_{2k+2}, E_7, E_8, F_4$ or $G_2.$ Moreover, in case $frak{g}$ is of type $D_{n}$ with $n$ odd, then $Z(U_q(frak{g}))$ is isomorphic to a quotient algebra of a polynomial algebra in $n+1$ variables with one relation; in case $frak{g}$ is of type $E_6$, then $Z(U_q(frak{g}))$ is isomorphic to a quotient algebra of a polynomial algebra in fourteen variables with eight relations; in case $frak{g}$ is of type $A_{n}$, then $Z(U_q(frak{g}))$ is isomorphic to a quotient algebra of a polynomial algebra described by $n$-sequences.
We summarize some recent results obtained in collaboration with J. McCarthy on the spectrum of physical states in $W_3$ gravity coupled to $c=2$ matter. We show that the space of physical states, defined as a semi-infinite (or BRST) cohomology of the $W_3$ algebra, carries the structure of a BV-algebra. This BV-algebra has a quotient which is isomorphic to the BV-algebra of polyvector fields on the base affine space of $SL(3,C)$. Details have appeared elsewhere.

For a C1-cofinite vertex algebra V, we give an efficient way to calculate Zhus algebra A(V) of V with respect to its C1-generators and relations. We use two examples to explain how this method works.
Given a finite dimensional Lie algebra $L$ let $I$ be the augmentation ideal in the universal enveloping algebra $U(L)$. We study the conditions on $L$ under which the $Ext$-groups $Ext (k,k)$ for the trivial $L$-module $k$ are the same when computed in the category of all $U(L)$-modules or in the category of $I$-torsion $U(L)$-modules. We also prove that the Rees algebra $oplus _{ngeq 0}I^n$ is Noetherian if and only if $L$ is nilpotent. An application to cohomology of equivariant sheaves is given.
