Abstract

We consider 4-point $W_3$ classical blocks focusing on the blocks level-1 and level-2 semi-degenerate operators. We derive BPZ-type equations for the auxiliary 5-point blocks with one additional fully degenerate operator. The monodromy properties of these equations are encoded by the accessory parameters, related to the 4-point $W_3$ classical blocks. We solve the BPZ-type equations via heavy-light perturbation theory and find the accessory parameters, which allows us to obtain the explicit expressions for the considered class of classical blocks.
