Abstract
Let be a simple algebraic group of type or defined over and be a maximal torus of . For a dominant coweight of , the -fixed point subscheme of the Schubert variety in the affine Grassmannian is a finite scheme. We prove that there is a natural isomorphism between the dual of the level one affine Demazure module corresponding to and the ring of functions (twisted by certain line bundle on ) of . We use this fact to give a geometric proof of the Frenkel-Kac-Segal isomorphism between basic representations of affine algebras of type and lattice vertex algebras.
