Thomas Creutzig, Andrew R. Linshaw

TL;DR
This paper proves the triality symmetry of certain $Y$-algebras, unifying and providing new proofs for many key theorems in the theory of $ ext{W}$-algebras, including dualities, rationality, and coset realizations.
Contribution
It establishes the triality of $Y$-algebras as quotients of $ ext{W}_{1+ ext{infinity}}$, confirming conjectures and unifying various $ ext{W}$-algebra results.
Findings
Proved the triality symmetry of $Y$-algebras.
Unified proofs of dualities and rationality in $ ext{W}$-algebras.
Confirmed conjectures on truncation curves and minimal generators.
Abstract
We prove the conjecture of Gaiotto and Rap\v{c}\'ak that the -algebras with one of the parameters zero, are simple one-parameter quotients of the universal two-parameter -algebra, and satisfy a symmetry known as triality. These -algebras are defined as the cosets of certain non-principal -algebras and -superalgebras by their affine vertex subalgebras, and triality is an isomorphism between three such algebras. Special cases of our result provide new and unified proofs of many theorems and open conjectures in the literature on -algebras of type . This includes (1) Feigin-Frenkel duality, (2) the coset realization of principal -algebras due to Arakawa and us, (3) Feigin and Semikhatov's conjectured triality between subregular -algebras, principal…
