CFT explorations of BMS-like algebras

This is based on work in progress with my PhD student Girish Vishwa.  We explore conformal field theoretic realisations of a family of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras containing the BMS algebra and define BRST complexes computing the semi-infinite cohomology of these algebras (relative the centre) with values in a module.
