Abstract

A construction of W-symmetries is given only in terms of the nonlocal fields (parafermions \ps\al), which take values on the homogeneous space G/U(1)r, where G is a simply connected compact Lie group manifold (its accompanying Lie algebra \cal G is a simple one of rank r). Only certain restriction of the root set of Lie algebra on which the parafermionic fields take values are satisfied, then a consistent and non-trivial extension of the stress momentum tensor may exist. For arbitrary simple-laced algebras, i.e. the A-D-E cases, a more detailed discussion is given. The OPE of spin three primary field are calculated, in which a primary field with spin four is emerging.
