We establish a fixed point property for a certain class of locally compact groups, including almost connected Lie groups and compact groups of finite abelian width, which act by simplicial isometries on finite rank buildings with measurable…

The main purpose of this work is to review the results obtained recently concerning the unitarization of highest weight representations for affine Kac-Moody algebras following the work of Jakobsen and Kac.

We initiate the study of some pro-p-groups arising from infinite-dimensional Lie theory. These groups are completions of some subgroups of incomplete Kac-Moody groups over finite fields, with respect to various completions of algebraic or…

We interpret certain equivariant Kasparov groups as equivariant representable K-theory groups. We compute these groups via a classifying space and as K-theory groups of suitable sigma-C*-algebras. We also relate equivariant vector bundles…

We provide explicit generators and relations for the affine Kac-Moody groups, as well as a realization of them as (twisted) loop groups by means of Galois descent considerations.

This expository paper is based on the lectures given at the program `Modular Representation Theory of Finite and $p$-adic Groups' at the National University of Singapore. We are concerned with recent results on representation theory and…

In this survey article, we recall some facts about split Kac-Moody groups as defined by J. Tits, describe their main properties and then propose an analogue of Borel-Tits theory for a non-split version of them. The main result is a Galois…

We give a characterization of connected solvable groups in terms of the existence of representations with certain geometric properties. The existence of such representations for the group of upper triangular matrices played an important…

We show that a canonical procedure of extending generalized Dynkin diagrams gives rise to families of Kac-Moody groups that satisfy homological stability. We also briefly sketch some emergent structure that appears on stabilization. Our…

In the first part of this paper we try to explain to a general mathematical audience some of the remarkable web of conjectures linking representations of Galois groups with algebraic geometry, complex analysis and discrete subgroups of Lie…

We realize the current algebra of a Kac-Moody algebra as a quotient of a semi-direct product of the Kac-Moody Lie algebra and the free Lie algebra of the Kac-Moody algebra. We use this realization to study the representations of the current…

We introduce an affinization of the quantum Kac-Moody algebra associated to a symmetric generalized Cartan matrix. Based on the affinization, we construct a representation of the quantum Kac-Moody algebra by vertex operators from bosonic…

This paper investigates the critical group of a faithful representation of a finite group. It computes the order of the critical group in terms of the character values, and gives some restrictions on its subgroup structure. It also computes…

We consider quiver representations respecting a quiver automorphism and show that the dimension vectors of the indecomposables are precisely the positive roots of an associated symmetrisable Kac-Moody Lie algebra. Moreover, every such Lie…

In this note, we verify that several fundamental results from the theory of representations of reductive $p$-adic groups, extend to finite central extensions of these groups.

In this paper we study some algebraic properties of the rack structure as well as the representation theory of it, following the ideas given by M. Elhamdadi and E. M. Moutuou in \cite{Elhamdadi}. We establish a correspondence between the…

This is the announcement and partly the review of our results about classification of Lorentzian Kac-Moody algebras of the rank three. One of our results gives the classification of Lorentzian Kac-Moody algebras with denominator identity…

We described in [M1] a monoid acting on the integrable highest weight modules of a symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebra. It has similar structural properties as a reductive algebraic monoid with unit group a Kac-Moody group. Now we find natural…
