Description

The structure of Steinberg conformal algebras is studied; these are analogues of Steinberg groups (algebras, superalgebras). A Steinberg conformal algebra is defined as an abstract algebra by a system of generators and relations between the generators. It is proved that a Steinberg conformal algebra is the universal central extension of the corresponding conformal Lie algebra; the kernel of this extension is calculated.
