Abstract:
In this paper we study highest weight representations of the affine Lie superalgebra q(n)(2). We prove that any Verma module over this algebra is reducible and calculate the character of an irreducible q(n)(2)-module with a generic highest weight. This formula is analogous to the Kac–Kazhdan formula for generic irreducible modules over affine Lie algebras at the critical level.
