W-symmetry is an extension of conformal symmetry in two dimensions. Since its introduction in 1985, W-symmetry has become one of the central notions in the study of two-dimensional conformal field theory. The mathematical structures that underlie W-symmetry are so-called W-algebras, which are higher-spin extensions of the Virasoro algebra. This book contains a collection of papers on W-symmetry, covering the period from 1985 through 1993. Its main focus is the construction of W-algebras and their representation theory. A recurrent theme is the intimate connection between W-algebras and affine Lie algebras. Some of the applications, in particular W-gravity, are also covered.The significance of this reprint volume is that there are no textbooks entirely devoted to the subject.

This is a collection of important papers presented by an international group of outstanding scientists at a seminar on strings and symmetries held in Stony Brook. This volume contains reviews on modern string theory and particle physics, including supersymmetric quantization, supergravity, conformal field theory, topological field theory, string phenomenology, matrix models, and W gravity. This proceedings is both an excellent introduction as well as reference source for researchers.
