Classical and quantum N=1 super $W_\infty$-algebras

open access: yes, 1996
We construct higher-spin N=1 super algebras as extensions of the super Virasoro algebra containing generators for all spins $s\ge 3/2$. We find two distinct classical (Poisson) algebras on the phase super space. Our results indicate that only one of them
