In this paper we consider representations of the ‘Large’ N = 4 superconformal algebra A in the Ramond sector as infinite-dimensional graded modules of its zero mode subalgebra, which we show to be the finite superalgebra su(2j2). We describe how repr... Read More about Young supertableaux and the large N = 4 superconformal algebra.
