The paper AdS3/CFT2 and q-Poincare’ superalgebras co-authored by Joakim Strömwall and Alessandro Torrielli, has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Physics A. In the paper they discover that a certain deformation of the 1+1 dimensional Poincare’ superalgebra is exactly realised in the massless sector of the AdS3/CFT2 integrable scattering problem. They obtain a […]
