| Popis: | Based on the intrinsic connection between Gaussian Free Fields and the Heisenberg Vertex Operator Algebra, we study some aspects of the correspondence between probability theory and $W$-algebras. This is first achieved by providing a probabilistic representation of the $W$-algebra associated to any simple and complex Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ by means of Gaussian Free Fields. This probabilistic representation has in turn strong implications for free-field correlation functions. Namely we show that this correspondence can be used to translate algebraic statements into actual constraints for free-field correlation functions in the form of Ward identities. This leads to new integrability results concerning Dotsenko-Fateev integrals associated to a simple and complex Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$, such as the derivation of a Fuchsian differential equation satisfied by deformations of $B_2$-Dotsenko-Fateev and Selberg integrals that arise from the Mukhin-Varchenko conjecture. Along the proof of this statement we also provide new results concerning representation theory of $W$-algebras such as the description of some singular vectors for the $\mathcal W B_2$ algebra.
