In the past two decades there has been a great attention to Lie (super)algebras which are extensions of affine Kac-Moody Lie (super)algebras, in certain typical or axiomatic approaches. These Lie (super)algebras have been mostly studied…

This is an exposition in order to give an explicit way to understand (1) a non-topological proof for an existence of a base of an affine root system, (2) a Serre-type definition of an elliptic Lie algebra with rank =>2, and (3) the…

Root-reductive Lie algebras are direct limits of finite-dimensional reductive Lie algebras under injections which preserve the root spaces. It is known that a root-reductive Lie algebra is a split extension of an abelian Lie algebra by a…

An attempt is made to understand the root spaces of Kac Moody algebras of hyperbolic type, and in particular $E_{10}$, in terms of a DDF construction appropriate to a subcritical compactified bosonic string. While the level-one root spaces…

We propose a new simplified definition of extended affine Lie algebras (EALAs for short), and also discuss a general version of extended affine Lie algebras, called locally extended affine Lie algebras (LEALAs for short). We prove a…

We study internal Lie algebras in the category of subshifts on a fixed group -- or Lie algebraic subshifts for short. We show that if the acting group is virtually polycyclic and the underlying vector space has dense homoclinic points, such…

We classify (*)-subgroups of compact Lie groups of adjoint type, and associate a twisted root system to every (*)-subgroup. We study the structure of twisted root system in several aspects: properties of the small Weyl group W_{small} and…

It is proved that the entire multi-parameter (small-)quantum groups of symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras can be realized as certain subquotients of the cotensor Hopf algebras. This is an axiomatic construction. Hopf 2-cocycle deformations…

A generalised notion of Kac-Moody algebra is defined using smooth maps from a compact real manifold $\mathcal{M}$ to a finite-dimensional Lie group, by means of complete orthonormal bases for a Hermitian inner product on the manifold and a…

The paper purposes to contribute to the classification of pointed Hopf algebras by the method of Andruskiewitsch and Schneider. The structure of arithmetic root systems is enlightened such that their relation to ordinary root systems…

We study branching problems for affine Kac--Moody algebras. Unlike the finite-dimensional case, an affine Kac--Moody algebra may contain proper subalgebras isomorphic to itself, such as winding subalgebras obtained by rescaling the loop…

The notion of a "root base" together with its geometry plays a crucial role in the theory of finite and affine Lie theory. However, it is known that such a notion does not exist for the recent generalizations of finite and affine root…

We apply results from the geometry of nilpotent orbits and nilpotent Slodowy slices, together with modularity and asymptotic analysis of characters, to prove many new isomorphisms between affine W-algebras and affine Kac-Moody vertex…

Any maximal root subsystem of a finite crystallographic reduced root system is either a closed root subsystem or its dual is a closed root subsystem in the dual root system. In this article, we classify the maximal root subsystems of an…

The semisimple subalgebras of the rank $2$ symplectic Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sp}(4,\mathbb{C})$ are well-known, and we recently classified its Levi decomposable subalgebras. In this article, we classify the solvable subalgebras of…

In this expository article, we describe the classification of the subalgebras of the rank 2 semisimple Lie algebras. Their semisimple subalgebras are well-known, and in a recent series of papers, we completed the classification of the…

This paper studies the loop algebras that arise from pairs consisting of a symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebra $\g$ and a finite order automorphism $\sigma$ of $\g$. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for two such loop algebras…

Let M_n be the class of all multiloop algebras of finite dimensional simple Lie algebras relative to n-tuples of commuting finite order automorphisms. It is a classical result that M_1 is the class of all derived algebras modulo their…

We study $\mathbb Z$-graded modules of nonzero level with arbitrary weight multiplicities over Heisenberg Lie algebras and the associated generalized loop modules over affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras. We construct new families of such…

In infinite-dimensional Lie theory, the affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras and groups play a distinguished role due to their many applications to various areas of mathematics and physics. Underlying these infinite-dimensional objects there are…
