We study automorphic Lie algebras and their applications to integrable systems. Automorphic Lie algebras are a natural generalisation of celebrated Kac-Moody algebras to the case when the group of automorphisms is not cyclic. They are…

We study spin structures on affine Kac-Moody symmetric spaces and obtain sufficient conditions for their existence.\ As a by product of this, we obtain a spin-c representation of certain Kac-Moody quadratic subgroups of type E.

In [Tame_quivers_and_affine_bases_I], we give a Ringel-Hall algebra approach to the canonical bases in the symmetric affine cases. In this paper, we extend the results to general symmetrizable affine cases by using Ringel-Hall algebras of…

Let $\mathcal U_\hbar(\hat{\mathfrak g})$ be the untwisted quantum affinization of a symmetrizable quantum Kac-Moody algebra $\mathcal U_\hbar({\mathfrak g})$. For $\ell\in\mathbb C$, we construct an $\hbar$-adic quantum vertex algebra…

For a quantum group, we study those right coideal subalgebras, for which all irreducible representations are one-dimensional. If a right coideal subalgebra is maximal with this property, then we call it a Borel subalgebra. Besides the…

A general algebraic approach, incorporating both invariance groups and dynamic symmetry algebras, is developed to reveal hidden coherent structures (closed complexes and configurations) in quantum many-body physics models due to symmetries…

The symmetric coinvariant algebra $C[x_1, dots, x_n]_{S_n}$ is the quotient algebra of the polynomial ring by the ideal generated by symmetric polynomials vanishing at the origin. It is known that the algebra is isomorphic to the regular…

In this short note, we describe the so-called homogeneous involution on finite-dimensional graded-division algebra over an algebraically closed field. We also compute their graded polynomial identities with involution. As pointed out by L.…

In this review, we present a general framework for the construction of Kac-Moody (KM) algebras associated to higher-dimensional manifolds. Starting from the classical case of loop algebras on the circle $\mathbb{S}^{1}$, we extend the…

The reduced norm-one group G of a central simple algebra is an inner form of the special linear group, and an involution on the algebra induces an automorphism of G. We study the action of such automorphisms in the cohomology of arithmetic…

We introduce a bivariant version of the Cuntz semigroup as equivalence classes of order zero maps generalizing the ordinary Cuntz semigroup. The theory has many properties formally analogous to KK-theory including a composition product. We…

We obtain two related characterizations of discrete quantum groups and discrete quantum groups of Kac type as allegorical group objects in the symmetric monoidal dagger category of quantum sets and relations, of interest to quantum…

Maximal parabolic subalgebras of untwisted affine Kac-Moody algebras were studied in the context of Borel-de Siebenthal theory in [13], where they were realized as certain equivariant map algebras with a non-free abelian group action. In…

In \cite{GS1} the notion of braided Yangians of Reflection Equation type was introduced. Each of these algebras is associated with an involutive or Hecke symmetry $R$. Besides, the quantum analogs of certain symmetric polynomials…
