Abstract

We prove the injectivity of the Miura maps for \( \mathcal{W} \)-superalgebras and the isomorphisms between the Poisson vertex superalgebras obtained as the associated graded of the \( \mathcal{W} \)-superalgebras in terms of Li’s filtration and the level 0 Poisson vertex superalgebras associated with the arc spaces of the corresponding Slodowy slices in full generality.
