We show that, up to Morita equivalence, any finite-dimensional algebra with a suitable homological system, admits an exact Borel subalgebra. This generalizes a theorem by Koenig, K\"ulshammer and Ovsienko, which holds for quasi-hereditary…

Let $\Phi$ be a finite crystallographic irreducible root system and $\mathcal P_{\Phi}$ be the convex hull of the roots in $\Phi$. We give a uniform explicit description of the polytope $\mathcal P_{\Phi}$, analyze the…

A new class of associative algebras referred to as affine walled Brauer algebras are introduced. These algebras are free with infinite rank over a commutative ring containing 1. Then level two walled Brauer algebras over C are defined,…

We discuss the category $\cal I$ of level zero integrable representations of loop algebras and their generalizations. The category is not semisimple and so one is interested in its homological properties. We begin by looking at some…

The aim of this work is to generalize a very important type of Lie algebras and superalgebras, i.e. filiform Lie (super)algebras, into the theory of Lie algebras of order F$. Thus, the concept of filiform Lie algebras of order F is…

This is a condensed write-up of a talk delivered at the Ramanujan International Symposium on Kac-Moody Lie algebras and Applications in Chennai in January 2002. The talk introduces special coideal subalgebras of quantum affine algebras…

One of the algebraic structures that has emerged recently in the study of the operator product expansions of chiral fields in conformal field theory is that of a Lie conformal algebra [K]. A Lie pseudoalgebra is a generalization of the…

We construct a new family of irreducible modules over any basic classical affine Kac-Moody Lie superalgebra which are induced from modules over the Heisenberg subalgebra. We also obtain irreducible deformations of these modules for the…

The Z-grading determined by a long simple root of an affine or finite type Lie algebra arises from an adjoint or cominuscule representation of a lower rank semi-simple complex Lie algebra. Analysis of the relationship between the grading…

The fake monster Lie algebra is determined by the Borcherds function Phi_{12} which is the reflective modular form of the minimal possible weight with respect to O(II_{2,26}). We prove that the first non-zero Fourier-Jacobi coefficient of…

For every field $F$ which has a quadratic extension $E$ we show there are non-metabelian infinite-dimensional thin graded Lie algebras all of whose homogeneous components, except the second one, have dimension $2$. We construct such Lie…

Irreducible nonzero level modules with finite-dimensional weight spaces are studied for non-twisted affine Lie superalgebras. A complete classification is obtained for superalgebras A(m,n)^ and C(n)^. In other cases the classification…

For any finitely generated abelian group $Q$, we reduce the problem of classification of $Q$-graded simple Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of "good" characteristic to the problem of classification of gradings on simple Lie…

We adapt methods from the theory of complex semisimple Lie algebras to develop a root theory for a class of simple $\mathbb{Z}_2 \times \mathbb{Z}_2$-graded (color) Lie algebras, which we call basic. As an application, assuming that the…

We introduce two subalgebras in the type A quantum affine algebra which are coideals with respect to the Hopf algebra structure. In the classical limit q -> 1 each subalgebra specializes to the enveloping algebra U(k), where k is a fixed…
