Simple Harish-Chandra modules over the superconformal current algebra

Abstract: In this paper, we classify the simple Harish-Chandra modules over the superconformal current algebra $\widehat{\frak g}$, which is the semi-direct sum of the $N=1$ superconformal algebra with the affine Lie superalgebra $\dot{\frak g} \otimes \mathcal{A}\oplus \mathbb CC_1$, where $\dot{\frak g}$ is a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra, and $\mathcal{A}$ is the tensor product of the Laurent polynomial algebra and the Grassmann algebra. As an application, we can directly get the classification of the simple Harish-Chandra modules over the $N=1$ Heisenberg-Virasoro algebra.
