Sažetak
This paper is a natural continuation of our previous work on conformal embeddings of vertex algebras [6], [7], [8]. Here we consider conformal embeddings in simple affine vertex superalgebra Vk(g) where g=g0¯⊕g1¯ is a basic classical simple Lie superalgebra. Let Vk(g0¯) be the subalgebra of Vk(g) generated by g0¯. We first classify all levels k for which the embedding Vk(g0¯) in Vk(g) is conformal. Next we prove that, for a large family of such conformal levels, Vk(g) is a completely reducible Vk(g0¯)–module and obtain decomposition rules. Proofs are based on fusion rules arguments and on the representation theory of certain affine vertex algebras. The most interesting case is the decomposition of V−2(osp(2n+8|2n)) as a finite, non simple current extension of V−2(Dn+4)⊗V1(Cn). This decomposition uses our previous work [10] on the representation theory of V−2(Dn+4). We also study conformal embeddings gl(n|m)↪sl(n+1|m) and in most cases we obtain decomposition rules.
