Review text

Fusion algebras of the super Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten model with \(\widehat{osp}(1|2)\)-symmetry are computed through the computation of the cohomologies of nilpotent subalgebras. First the definition of contragredient Lie superalgebras is given and the Shapovalov determinant formulae for a symmetrizable contragredient Lie superalgebra is stated. As an application the character sum formula for the Jantzen filtration on Verma modules is obtained. Kac-Moody superalgebras are introduced. A Bernstein-Gel'fand-Gel'fand (BGG) resolution for symmetrizable Kac-Moody superalgebras of rank 2 is constructed. Finally, as an application, the above mentioned fusion algebras are computed.
