Let g be a complex reductive Lie algebra with Cartan algebra h. Hotta and Kashiwara defined a holonomic D-module M, on g x h, called Harish-Chandra module. We relate gr(M), an associated graded module with respect to a canonical Hodge…

We study all possible deformations of the Maxwell algebra. In D=d+1\neq 3 dimensions there is only one-parameter deformation. The deformed algebra is isomorphic to so(d+1,1)\oplus so(d,1) or to so(d,2)\oplus so(d,1) depending on the signs…

It is proved that for a vector space W, any set of parafermion-like vertex operators on W in a certain canonical way generates a generalized vertex algebra in the sense of [DL2] with W as a natural module. This result generalizes a result…

Two distinct projections of finite rank $m$ are adjacent if their difference is an operator of rank two or, equivalently, the intersection of their images is $(m-1)$-dimensional. We extend this adjacency relation on other conjugacy classes…

Axial algebras are non-associative algebras generated by semisimple idempotents whose adjoint actions obey a fusion law. Axial algebras that are generated by two such idempotents play a crucial role in the theory. We classify all primitive…

We define a generalization $\mathfrak{G}$ of the Grassmann algebra $G$ which is well-behaved over arbitrary commutative rings $C$, even when $2$ is not invertible. In particular, this enables us to define a notion of superalgebras that does…

We give an overview of the construction of Borcherds algebras, particularly the Monstrous Lie algebras $\mathfrak m_g$ constructed by Carnahan, where $g$ is an element of the Monster finite simple group. When $g$ is the identity element,…

We study the action of Dynkin diagram automorphisms $\sigma$ on generalized Gaudin algebras, focusing in particular on the big Gaudin algebra $\mathcal{B}(\mathfrak{g}) \subset (U(\mathfrak{g}) \otimes S(\mathfrak{g}))^{\mathfrak{g}}$ and…

The (4,0) supermultiplet in 6 dimensions contains a 4th rank tensor gauge field with the symmetries of the Riemann tensor and is superconformal, with 32+32 supersymmetries. Dimensional reduction on a circle gives the 5D N=8 supergravity…

We discuss some consequences of the fact that symmetry groups appearing in compactified (super-)gravity may be non-simply connected. The possibility to add fermions to a theory results in a simple criterion to decide whether a 3-dimensional…

We introduce the volume-preserving equivalence among symmetric matrix-valued map-germs which is the unimodular version of Bruce's $\mathcal{G}$-equivalence. The key concept to deduce unimodular classification out of classification relative…

The polynomial deformations of the Witten extensions of the U(su(2)) and U(osp(1,2)) algebras are three generator algebras with normal ordering, admitting a two generator subalgebra. The modules and the representations of these algebras are…

We classify subalgebras of the complex simple Lie algebra of type G2 up to conjugacy (by an inner automorphism).

A new generalization of the modified Bessel function of the second kind $K_{z}(x)$ is studied. Elegant series and integral representations, a differential-difference equation and asymptotic expansions are obtained for it thereby…

Metabelian algebras are introduced and it is shown that an algebra $A$ is metabelian if and only if $A$ is a nilpotent algebra having the index of nilpotency at most $3$, i.e. $x y z t = 0$, for all $x$, $y$, $z$, $t \in A$. We prove that…

In our previous paper math.QA/0412192 the Cayley-Hamilton identity for the GL(m|n) type quantum matrix algebra was obtained. Here we continue investigation of that identity. We derive it in three alternative forms and, most importantly, we…

We consider algebras over a field K, generated by two variables x and y subject to the single relation yx = qxy + ax + by + c for q in K^* and a, b, c in K. We prove, that among such algebras there are precisely five isomorphism classes.…

In this thesis generalizations of matrix and eigenvalue models involving supersymmetry are discussed. Following a brief review of the Hermitian one matrix model, the c=-2 matrix model is considered. Built from a matrix valued superfield…

The McKay Conjecture (MC) asserts the existence of a bijection between the (inequivalent) complex irreducible representations of degree coprime to $p$ ($p$ a prime) of a finite group $G$ and those of the subgroup $N$, the normalizer of…

Dimensional reduction of (super-)gravity theories to 3 dimensions results in sigma models on coset spaces G/H, such as the E_8/SO(16) coset in the bosonic sector of 3 dimensional maximal supergravity. The reverse process, oxidation, is the…
