Classifying relaxed highest-weight modules for admissible-level Bershadsky-Polyakov algebras
2020
The Bershadsky-Polyakov algebras are the minimal quantum hamiltonian reductions of the affine vertex algebras associated to $\mathfrak{sl}_3$ and their simple quotients have a long history of applications in conformal field theory and string theory. Their representation theories are therefore quite interesting. Here, we classify the simple relaxed highest-weight modules for all admissible but nonintegral levels, significantly generalising the known highest-weight classifications [arXiv:1005.0185, arXiv:1910.13781]. In particular, we prove that the simple Bershadsky-Polyakov algebras with admissible nonintegral $\mathsf{k}$ are always rational in category $\mathscr{O}$, whilst they always admit nonsemisimple relaxed highest-weight modules unless $\mathsf{k}+\frac{3}{2} \in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge0}$.
