Abstract: In this paper, we give a construction of simple modules generalizing and including both highest weight and Whittaker modules for the Neveu-Schwarz algebra, in the spirit of the work of Mazorchuk and Zhao on simple Virasoro modules. We establish a 1-1 correspondence between simple restricted Neveu-Schwarz modules and simple modules of a family of finite dimensional solvable Lie superalgebras associated to the Neveu-Schwarz algebra. Moreover, for two of these superalgebras all simple modules are classified.


A fact on the representation theory of Neveu-Schwarz (NS for short) Lie superalgebra claims that there is an isomorphism between the category of restricted NS modules and the category of weak modules for the NS vertex operator superalgebra. The paper under this review studies the classification problem of simple restricted NS modules. The main result is Theorem 4.3, which says that a simple restricted module bijectively corresponds to a family of finite dimensional solvable Lie superalgebras associated to the NS algebra, described in section 4. Under this correspondence, the authors also describe known and new examples of simple Whittaker modules for the NS algebras.
