A class of non-semisimple extensions of Lie superalgebras is studied. They are obtained by adjoining to the superalgebra its adjoint representation as an abelian ideal. When the superalgebra is of affine Kac-Moody type, a generalisation of…
Consider a strictly positively graded finitely generated infinite-dimensional real Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. It has a well-defined Lie group $\overline{\mathbf{G}}$, which is an inverse limit of finite-dimensional nilpotent Lie groups (a…
This work has its origins in an attempt to describe systematically the integrable geometries and gauge theories in dimensions one to four related to twistor theory. In each such dimension, there is a nondegenerate integrable geometric…
We describe a coordinate-free notion of conformal nets as a mathematical model of conformal field theory. We define defects between conformal nets and introduce composition of defects, thereby providing a notion of morphism between…
Dimensional reduction in two dimensions of gravity in higher dimension, or more generally of d=3 gravity coupled to a sigma-model on a symmetric space, is known to possess an infinite number of symmetries. We show that such a bidimensional…
We develop the Lie theory of Lie-admissible algebras whose product is enriched with higher operations modeled on directed graphs with a view to apply it to the deformation theories controlled by this kind of Lie algebras. We produce…
We investigate an extension of 2D nonlinear gauge theory from the Poisson sigma model based on Lie algebroid to a model with additional two-form gauge fields. Dimensional reduction of 3D nonlinear gauge theory yields an example of such a…
Infinitesimal conformal transformations of $R^n$ are always polynomial and finitely generated when $n>2$. Here we prove that the Lie algebra of infinitesimal conformal polynomial transformations over $R^n$, $n>1$, is maximal in the Lie…
Infinite-dimensional algebras of hidden symmetries of the self-dual Yang-Mills equations are considered. A current-type algebra of symmetries and an affine extension of conformal symmetries introduced recently are discussed using the…
A new topological conformal field theory in four Euclidean dimensions is constructed from N=4 super Yang-Mills theory by twisting the whole of the conformal group with the whole of the R-symmetry group, resulting in a theory that is…
Comparing the bounded derived categories of an algebra and of the endomorphism algebra of a given support {\tau}-tilting module, we find a relation between the derived dimensions of an algebra and of the endomorphism algebra of a given…
Hilbert--Lie groups are Lie groups whose Lie algebra is a real Hilbert space whose scalar product is invariant under the adjoint action. These infinite-dimensional Lie groups are the closest relatives to compact Lie groups. Here we study…
It is shown that self-dual theories generalize to four dimensions both the conformal and analytic aspects of two-dimensional conformal field theories. In the harmonic space language there appear several ways to extend complex analyticity…
It is shown that in dimension at least three a local diffeomorphism of Euclidean n-space into itself is injective provided that the pull-back of every plane is a Riemannian submanifold which is conformal to a plane. Using a similar…
A set of coordinates in the non parametric loop-space is introduced. We show that these coordinates transform under infinite dimensional linear representations of the diffeomorphism group. An extension of the group of loops in terms of…
Associative conformal algebras of conformal endomorphisms are of essential importance for the study of finite representations of conformal Lie algebras (Lie vertex algebras). We describe all semisimple algebras of conformal endomorphisms…
We provide a Lie algebra expansion procedure to construct three-dimensional higher-order Schr\"odinger algebras which relies on a particular subalgebra of the four-dimensional relativistic conformal algebra. In particular, we reproduce the…
This paper investigates bicovariant differential calculus on noncommutative spaces of the Lie algebra type. For a given Lie algebra $g_0$ we construct a Lie superalgebra $g=g_0\oplus g_1$ containing noncommutative coordinates and…
Finite-dimensional subalgebras of a Lie algebra of smooth vector fields on a circle, as well as piecewise-smooth global transformations of a circle on itself, are considered. A canonical forms of realizations of two- and three-dimensional…
By introducing suitable non-isospectral flows we construct two sets of symmetries for the isospectral differential-difference Kadomstev-Petviashvili hierarchy. The symmetries form an infinite dimensional Lie algebra.
