TL;DR

This paper explores the duality between  supersymmetric higher spin theories on AdS3 and Kazama-Suzuki models, focusing on the structure of the asymptotic symmetry algebra and its implications for quantum symmetry matching.

Contribution

It elucidates the structure of the quantum asymptotic symmetry algebra sW_{\u221e}[] for arbitrary  and central charge, demonstrating symmetry equivalence beyond the 't Hooft limit.

Findings

Four different  values describe the same sW_{} algebra at each central charge

Quantum symmetries match on both sides of the duality at finite N and k

The algebraic structure supports the duality beyond the classical limit

Abstract

Recently a duality between a family of \mathcal{N}=2 supersymmetric higher spin theories on AdS3, and the 't Hooft like limit of a class of Kazama-Suzuki models (that are parametrised by N and k) was proposed. The higher spin theories can be described by a Chern-Simons theory based on the infinite-dimensional Lie algebra shs[\mu], and under the duality, \mu is to be identified with \lambda=N/(N+k+1). Here we elucidate the structure of the (quantum) asymptotic symmetry algebra sW_{\infty}[\mu] for arbitrary \mu and central charge c. In particular, we show that for each value of the central charge, there are generically four different values of \mu that describe the same sW_{\infty} algebra. Among other things this proves that the quantum symmetries on both sides of the duality agree; this equivalence does not just hold in the 't Hooft limit, but even at finite N and k.
