$q$-Virasoro/W Algebra at Root of Unity and Parafermions
  We demonstrate that the parafermions appear in the $r$-th root of unity limit of $q$-Virasoro/$W_n$ algebra. The proper value of the central charge of the coset model $ \frac{\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}(n)_r \oplus \widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}(n)_{m-n}}{\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}(n)_{m-n+r}}$ is given from the parafermion construction of the block in the limit.
