abstract
The noncritical $D=4$ $W_3$ string is a model of $W_3$ gravity coupled to two free scalar fields. In this paper we discuss its BRST quantization in direct analogy with that of the $D=2$ (Virasoro) string. In particular, we calculate the physical spectrum as a problem in BRST cohomology. The corresponding operator cohomology forms a BV-algebra. We model this BV-algebra on that of the polyderivations of a commutative ring on six variables with a quadratic constraint, or, equivalently, on the BV-algebra of (polynomial) polyvector fields on the base affine space of $SL(3,C)$. In this paper we attempt to present a complete summary of the progress made in these studies. [...]

BMS-like algebras: canonical realisations and BRST quantisation
A family of Weyl λ-BMS algebras is realized canonically from a Klein-Gordon field, centrally extended, and shown to have BRST cohomology matching an N=2 superconformal chiral ring, while the conformal BMS W-algebra is...
