Abstract: We discuss a class of vertex operator algebras $mathcal{W}_{m|nimesinfty}$ generated by a super-matrix of fields for each integral spin $1,2,3,dots$. The algebras admit a large family of truncations that are in correspondence with holomorphic functions on the Calabi-Yau singularity given by solutions to $xy=z^m{w}^n$. We propose a free-field realization of such truncations generalizing the Miura transformation for $mathcal{W}_N$ algebras. Relations in the ring of holomorphic functions lead to bosonization-like relations between different free-field realizations. The discussion provides a concrete example of a non-trivial interplay between vertex operator algebras, algebraic geometry and gauge theory.
