For any Kac-Moody root data $\mathcal D$, D. Muthiah and D. Orr have defined a partial order on the semi-direct product $W^+$ of the integral Tits cone with the vectorial Weyl group of $\mathcal D$, and a strictly compatible $\mathbb…

We study the four infinite families KA(n), KB(n), KD(n), KQ(n) of finite dimensional Hopf (in fact Kac) algebras constructed respectively by A. Masuoka and L. Vainerman: isomorphisms, automorphism groups, self-duality, lattices of coideal…

A new kind of quantum Calogero model is proposed, based on a hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebra. We formulate nonrelativistic quantum mechanics on the Minkowskian root space of the simplest rank-3 hyperbolic Lie algebra $AE_3$ with an…

Generalized KdV hierarchies associated by Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction to grade one regular semisimple elements from non-equivalent Heisenberg subalgebras of a loop algebra $\G\otimes{\bf C}[\lambda,\lambda^{-1}]$ are studied. The graded…

As part of his classification of regular semisimple subalgebras of semisimple Lie algebras, Dynkin introduced the notion of a $\pi$-system. This is a subset of the roots such that pairwise differences of its elements are not roots. These…

Motivated by affine Schubert calculus, we construct a family of dual graded graphs $(\Gamma_s,\Gamma_w)$ for an arbitrary Kac-Moody algebra $\g(A)$. The graded graphs have the Weyl group $W$ of $\g(A)$ as vertex set and are labeled versions…

This note describes a unified approach to several superrigidity results, old and new, concerning representations of lattices into simple algebraic groups over local fields. For an arbitrary group $\Gamma$ and a $\Gamma$-boundary $B$ we…

In this paper we show that Weyl-invariant commutator blueprints of type $(4, 4, 4)$ are faithful. As a consequence we answer a question of Tits from the late $1980$s about twin buildings. Moreover, we obtain the first example of a…

In this paper, we prove that the ring of polynomial invariants of the Weyl group for an indecomposable and indefinite Kac-Moody Lie algebra is generated by invariant symmetric bilinear form or is trivial depending on $A$ is symmetrizable or…

We discuss quiver gauge models with bi-fundamental and fundamental matter obtained from F-theory compactified on ALE spaces over a four dimensional base space. We focus on the base geometry which consists of intersecting F0=CP1xCP1…

We extend results for the K-theory of Hecke algebras of reductive $p$-adic groups to completed Kac-Moody groups.

The main goal of this paper is to categorify the specialized parasymmetric (intermediate) Macdonald polynomials. These polynomials depend on a parabolic subalgebra of a simple Lie algebra and generalize the symmetric and nonsymmetric…

We construct explicitly a Kac-Moody algebra associated to SL$(2, \mathbb R)$ in two different but equivalent ways: either by identifying a Hilbert basis of $L^2($SL$(2, \mathbb R))$ or by the Plancherel Theorem. Central extensions and…

We consider bounded weight modules for the universal central extension ${\mathfrak{sl}}_2(J)$ of the Tits-Kantor-Koecher algebra of a unital Jordan algebra $J$. Universal objects called Weyl modules are introduced and studied, and a…

We study certain Z_2-graded, finite-dimensional polynomial algebras of degree 2 which are a special class of deformations of Lie superalgebras, which we call quadratic Lie superalgebras. Starting from the formal definition, we discuss the…

We classify regular subalgebras of affine Kac-Moody algebras in terms of their root systems. In the process, we establish that a root system of a subalgebra is always an intersection of the root system of the algebra with a sublattice of…

We define a multiple Dirichlet series whose group of functional equations is the Weyl group of the affine Kac-Moody root system $\tilde{A}_n$, generalizing the theory of multiple Dirichlet series for finite Weyl groups. The construction is…

We compute the finite-dimensional Nichols algebras over the sum of two simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules V and W over non-abelian quotients of a certain central extension of the dihedral group of eight elements or SL(2,3), and such that the…

We introduce one of the most beautiful algebraic varieties known, a quintic hypersurface in projective five-space, which is invariant under the action of the Weyl group of $E_6$. This variety is intricately related with many other moduli…

We present a unified and completely general formulation of extended geometry, characterised by a Kac-Moody algebra and a highest weight coordinate module. Generalised diffeomorphisms are constructed, as well as solutions to the section…
