There is a well-established procedure of assigning a strong homotopy Lie algebra of local observables to a multisymplectic manifold which can be regarded as part of a categorified Poisson structure. For a 2-plectic manifold, the resulting…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a finite-dimensional simple complex Lie algebra. A layer sum is introduced as the sum of formal exponentials of the distinct weights appearing in an irreducible $\mathfrak{g}$-module. It is argued that the character of…

We present a detailed study of a parametric Lie algebra encompassing the symmetry algebras of various models, both continuous and discrete. This algebraic structure characterizes the isotropic oscillator (with positive, purely imaginary,…

We investigate the representations and the structure of Hecke algebras associated to certain finite complex reflection groups. We first describe computational methods for the construction of irreducible representations of these algebras,…

The paper concerns two versions of the notion of real forms of Lie superalgebras. One is the standard approach, where a real form of a complex Lie superalgebra is a real Lie superalgebra such that its complexification is the original…

We define complex Minkowski superspace in 4 dimensions as the big cell inside a complex flag supermanifold. The complex conformal supergroup acts naturally on this super flag, allowing us to interpret it as the conformal compactification of…

Consider the quotient $G/B$ of a simple matrix Lie group $G$ by a subgroup $B$ isomorphic to a direct product of some of $S^1$s and $S^3$s such that its adjoint representation can be extended over $G$. Then it naturally inherits a stable…

Given any representation V of a complex linear reductive Lie group G_0, we show that a larger semi-simple Lie group G with g=g_0 + V + V* + ..., exists precisely when V has a finite number of G_0-orbits. In particular, V admits an open…

We study the adjoint and coadjoint representations of a class of Lie group including the Euclidean group. Despite the fact that these representations are not in general isomorphic, we show that there is a geometrically defined bijection…

We wish to understand how irreducible representations of a group G behave when restricted to a subgroup G' (the branching problem). Our primary concern is with representations of reductive Lie groups, which involve both algebraic and…

Let $\gg$ be the Lie algebra of a compact Lie group and let $\theta$ be any automorphism of $\gg$. Let $\gk$ denote the fixed point subalgebra $\gg^\theta$. In this paper we present LiE programs that, for any finite dimensional complex…

In this note, I discuss in some detail the dual version of the ribbon graph decomposition of the moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces with boundary and marked points, which I introduced in math.AG/0402015, and used in math.QA/0412149 to…

We introduce a remarkable subset "the stem" of the set of positive roots of a reduced root system. The stem determines several interesting decompositions of the corresponding reductive Lie algebra. It gives also a nice simple three…

Results describing Lie ideals and maximal finite-codimensional Lie subalgebras of the Lie algebras associated with Lie algebroids with non-singular anchor maps are presented. It is also proved that every isomorphism of such Lie algebras…

Uniform Lie algebras are combinatorially defined two-step nilpotent Lie algebras which can be used to define Einstein solvmanifolds. These Einstein spaces often have nontrivial isotropy groups. We derive basic properties of uniform Lie…

This is a short presentation of some classical results on finite dimensional complex Lie algebras (classification of nilpotent Lie algebras, deformations and perturbations, contractions and rigidity). We present some applications to…

We give a new interpretation and proof of the "quasi-particle" type character formulas for integrable representations of the simply-laced affine Kac-Moody algebras through a new "semi-infinite" construction of such representations. We…

We consider complex manifolds that admit actions by holomorphic transformations of classical simple real Lie groups and classify all such manifolds in a natural situation. Under our assumptions, which require the group at hand to be…

Consider complex semisimple Lie algebras of a given dimension specified by their structure constants. We describe a finite collection of rational functions in the structure constants that form a complete set of invariants: two sets of…

We study the representation theory of finite-dimensional $\omega$-Lie algebras over the complex field. We derive an $\omega$-Lie version of the classical Lie's theorem, i.e., any finite-dimensional irreducible module of a soluble…
