Abstract

Covering Algebras of extended affine Lie algebras(EALA's) relative to finite order automorphisms are studied. Conditions are given for when the resulting algebra is again an EALA. This paper deals with affinizations of EALA's relative to finite order automorphisms and these algebras are generalizations of the affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras.
