Free boson realization of U_ q(sl_ N )

From MaRDI portal
Publication:1325564



Abstract: We construct a realization of the quantum affine algebra Uq(widehatslN) of an arbitrary level k in terms of free boson fields. In the q!ightarrow!1 limit this realization becomes the Wakimoto realization of widehatslN. The screening currents and the vertex operators(primary fields) are also constructed; the former commutes with Uq(widehatslN) modulo total difference, and the latter creates the Uq(widehatslN) highest weight state from the vacuum state of the boson Fock space.
