Abstract

Using the splitting of a QQ-deformed boson, in the Qq=e2πikQ \to q= e^{\frac{\rm 2\pi i}{\rm k}} limit, the fractional decomposition of the quantum affine algebra A^(n)\hat A(n) and the quantum affine superalgebra A^(n,m)\hat A(n,m) are found. This decomposition is based on the oscillator representation and can be related to the fractional supersymmetry and k-fermionic spin. We establish also the equivalence between the quantum affine algebra A^(n)\hat A(n) and the classical one in the fermionic realization.
