Smooth modules over the N=1 Bondi-Metzner-Sachs superalgebra
Abstract: In this paper, we present a determinant formula for the contravariant form on Verma modules over the N=1 Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS) superalgebra. This formula establishes a necessary and sufficient condition for the irreducibility of the Verma modules. We then introduce and characterize a class of simple smooth modules that generalize both Verma and Whittaker modules over the N=1 BMS superalgebra. We also utilize the Heisenberg-Clifford vertex superalgebra to construct a free field realization for the N=1 BMS superalgebra. This free field realization allows us to obtain a family of natural smooth modules over the N=1 BMS superalgebra, which includes Fock modules and certain Whittaker modules.
