We discuss non-relativistic conformal algebras generalizing the Schr\"odinger algebra. One instance of these algebras is a conformal, acceleration-extended, Galilei algebra, which arises also as a contraction of the relativistic conformal…
All indecomposable finite-dimensional representations of the homogeneous Galilei group which when restricted to the rotation subgroup are decomposed to spin 0, 1/2 and 1 representations are constructed and classified. These representations…
Given a connected non-negative unit form we construct an extended affine Lie algebra by giving a Chevalley basis for it. We also obtain this algebra as a quotient of an algebra defined by means of generalized Serre relations by M. Barot, D.…
We study the Borcherds superalgebra obtained by adding an odd (fermionic) null root to the set of simple roots of a simple finite-dimensional Lie algebra. We compare it to the Kac-Moody algebra obtained by replacing the odd null root by an…
One of the four well-known series of simple Lie algebras of Cartan type is the series of Lie algebras of Special type, which are divergence-free Lie algebras associated with polynomial algebras and the operators of taking partial…
After reviewing the three well-known methods to obtain Lie algebras and superalgebras from given ones, namely, contractions, deformations and extensions, we describe a fourth method recently introduced, the expansion of Lie (super)algebras.…
In an earlier work extensions of supersymmetry and super Lie algebras were constructed consistently starting from any representation $\D$ of any Lie algebra $\g$. Here it is shown how infinite dimensional Lie algebras appear naturally…
We study representations of the Loop Kac-Moody Lie algebra g \otimes A, where g is any Kac-Moody algebra and A is a ring of Laurent polynomials in n commuting variables. In particular, we study representations with finite dimensional weight…
We consider the subalgebras of split real, non-twisted affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras that are fixed by the Chevalley involution. These infinite-dimensional Lie algebras are not of Kac-Moody type and admit finite-dimensional unfaithful…
In this contributed presentation, we discuss and compare the mutually opposite procedures of deformations and contractions of Lie algebras. We suggest that with appropriate combinations of both procedures one may construct new Lie algebras.…
Since the work of Henri Cartan finite dimensional Riemannian symmetric spaces are an important subject of mathematical interest. They are related in a natural way to semisimple Lie groups. In this work we introduce and study their infinite…
We examine three versions of non-relativistic electrodynamics, known as the electric and magnetic limit theories of Maxwell's equations and Galilean electrodynamics (GED) which is the off-shell non-relativistic limit of Maxwell plus a free…
A Galilean contraction is a way to construct Galilean conformal algebras from a pair of infinite-dimensional conformal algebras, or equivalently, a method for contracting tensor products of vertex algebras. Here, we present a generalisation…
The $S$-expansion framework is analyzed in the context of a freedom in closing the multiplication tables for the abelian semigroups. Including the possibility of the zero element in the resonant decomposition and associating the Lorentz…
In this paper, we present a canonical association of quantum vertex algebras and their $\phi$-coordinated modules to Lie algebra $\gl_{\infty}$ and its 1-dimensional central extension. To this end we construct and make use of another…
We show that infinite families of non-relativistic spin-$3$ symmetries in $2+1$ dimensions, which include higher-spin extensions of the Bargmann, Newton-Hooke, non-relativistic Maxwell, and non-relativistic AdS-Lorentz algebras, can be…
In this paper, a semi-simple and Maxwell extension of the (anti) de Sitter algebra is constructed. Then, a gauge-invariant model has been presented by gauging the Maxwell semi-simple extension of the (anti) de Sitter algebra. We firstly…
The concept of weak Lie motion (weak Lie symmetry) is introduced through ${\cal{L}}_{\xi}{\cal{L}}_{\xi}g_{ab}=0,$ (${\cal{L}}_{\xi}{\cal{L}}_{\xi}f=0$). Applications are given which exhibit a reduction of the usual symmetry, e.g., in the…
We use Lie-algebraic arguments to classify Lorentz-invariant theories of massless interacting scalars that feature coordinate-dependent redundant symmetries of the Galileon type. We show that such theories are determined, up to a set of…
The Galilean conformal algebra has recently been realised in the study of the non-relativistic limit of the AdS/CFT conjecture. This was obtained by a systematic parametric group contraction of the parent relativistic conformal field…
