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…
We realize the enveloping algebra of the positive part of a semisimple complex Lie algebra as a convolution algebra of constructible functions on module varieties of some Iwanaga-Gorenstein algebras of dimension 1.
These are notes for my Takagi lecture at the University of Tokyo in November, 2016. I survey what is known about simple modules for reductive algebraic groups. The emphasis is on characteristic p>0 and Lusztig's character formula. I explain…
After classifying indecomposable quasi-classical Lie algebras in low dimension, and showing the existence of non-reductive stable quasi-classical Lie algebras, we focus on the problem of obtaining sufficient conditions for a quasi-classical…
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 present a way to associate an algebra $B_G (\Upsilon) $ with every pseudo reflection group $G$. When $G$ is a Coxeter group of simply-laced type we show $B_G (\Upsilon)$ is isomorphic to the generalized Brauer algebra of simply-laced…
Let $G$ be a non-compact classical semisimple Lie group and let $G/V$ be the adjoint orbit with respect to a fixed element in $G$. These manifolds can be equipped with an almost-K\"ahler structure and we provide explicit formulae for the…
A Lie version of Turaev's $\overline{G}$-Frobenius algebras from 2-dimensional homotopy quantum field theory is proposed. The foundation for this Lie version is a structure we call a \textit{$\frak{g}$-quasi-Frobenius Lie algebra} for…
In this work we state a result that relates the cohomology groups of a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and a current Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g} \otimes \mathcal{S}$, by means of a short exact sequence -- similar to the universal coefficients…
Given a semidirect product $\frak{g}=\frak{s}\uplus\frak{r}$ of semisimple Lie algebras $\frak{s}$ and solvable algebras $\frak{r}$, we construct polynomial operators in the enveloping algebra $\mathcal{U}(\frak{g})$ of $\frak{g}$ that…
Let ${\mathcal B}_{\mathfrak{q}}$ be a finite-dimensional Nichols algebra of diagonal type with braiding matrix $\mathfrak{q}$, let $\mathcal{L}_{\mathfrak{q}}$ be the corresponding Lusztig algebra as in arXiv:1501.04518 and let…
We introduce and investigate a functorial construction which associates coherent sheaves to finite dimensional (restricted) representations of a restricted Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. These are sheaves on locally closed subvarieties of the…
In this note we are interested in labelling the irreducible representations of non-semisimple specialisations of Hecke algebras of complex reflection groups. We will use category O for the rational Cherednik algebra and the KZ functor…
We describe a class of Lie superalgebras in characteristic $3$, containing the Elduque-Cunha superalgebras $\mathfrak{g}(3,3), \mathfrak{g}(6,6)$ and the Elduque superalgebra $\mathfrak{el}(5,3)$, using the tensor product of composition…
George Lusztig conjectured that asymptotic affine Hecke algebra of a simply connected group can be explicitly described in terms of convolution algebras. Main Theorem of this note (which is a continuation of RT/0010089) is a weak version of…
We construct common triangular bases for almost all the known (quantum) cluster algebras from Lie theory. These bases provide analogs of the dual canonical bases, long anticipated in cluster theory. In cases where the generalized Cartan…
We show that every connected affine algebraic supergroup defined over a field k, with diagonalizable maximal torus and whose tangent Lie superalgebra is a k-form of a complex simple Lie superalgebra of classical type is a Chevalley…
We prove that if $\mathfrak{s}$ is a solvable Lie algebra of matrices over a field of characteristic 0, and $A\in\mathfrak{s}$, then the semisimple and nilpotent summands of the Jordan-Chevalley decomposition of $A$ belong to $\mathfrak{s}$…
In the representation theory of simple Lie algebras, we consider the problem of constructing a "canonical" weight basis in an arbitrary irreducible finite-dimensional highest weight module. Vinberg suggested a method for constructing such…
We give a new characterization of flat affine manifolds in terms of an action of the Lie algebra of classical infinitesimal affine transformations on the bundle of linear frames. We characterize flat affine symplectic Lie groups using…
