Abstract

We consider the (finite) W -algebra W m|n attached to the principal nilpotent orbit in the general linear Lie superalgebra gl m|n ‫.)ރ(‬Our main result gives an explicit description of W m|n as a certain truncation of a shifted version of the Yangian Y (gl 1|1 ).We also show that W m|n admits a triangular decomposition and construct its irreducible representations.
