Automorphisms of finite order and real forms of "smooth" affine Kac-Moody algebras are studied, i.e. of 2-dimensional extensions of the algebra of smooth loops in a simple Lie algebra. It is shown that they can be parametrized by certain…

We introduce Galois corings, and give a survey of properties that have been obtained so far. The Definition is motivated using descent theory, and we show that classical Galois theory, Hopf-Galois theory and coalgebra Galois theory can be…

How many generators and relations does ${\mathrm SL}_n({\mathbb F}_q[t, t^{-1}])$ need? In this paper we exhibit its explicit presentation with $9$ generators and $44$ relations. We investigate presentations of affine Kac-Moody groups over…

We give a detailed description of the torsors that correspond to multiloop algebras. These algebras are twisted forms of simple Lie algebras extended over Laurent polynomial rings. They play a crucial role in the construction of Extended…

The goal of the present paper is to obtain new free field realizations of affine Kac-Moody algebras motivated by geometric representation theory for generalized flag manifolds of finite-dimensional semisimple Lie groups. We provide an…

For a split Kac-Moody group G over an ultrametric field K, S. Gaussent and the author defined an ordered affine hovel on which the group acts; it generalizes the Bruhat-Tits building which corresponds to the case when G is reductive. This…

In 2019, D. Muthiah proposed a strategy to define affine Kazhdan-Lusztig $R$-polynomials for Kac-Moody groups. Since then, Bardy-Panse, the first author and Rousseau have introduced the formalism of twin masures and the authors have…

A connection between the Galois-theoretic approach to semi-abelian homology and the homological closure operators is established. In particular, a generalised Hopf formula for homology is obtained, allowing the choice of a new kind of…

We outline a new approach to classify real forms and automorphisms of finite order of affine Kac-Moody algebras.

Twisted K-theory classes over compact Lie groups can be realized as families of Fredholm operators using the representation theory of loop groups. In this talk I want to show how to deform the Fredholm family, in the sense of quantum…

We estimate several probability distributions arising from the study of random, monic polynomials of degree $n$ with coefficients in the integers of a general $p$-adic field $K_{\mathfrak{p}}$ having residue field with $q= p^f$ elements. We…

Motivated by recent results in mathematical virology, we present novel asymmetric Z[tau]-integer-valued affine extensions of the non-crystallographic Coxeter groups H_2, H_3 and H_4 derived in a Kac-Moody-type formalism. In particular, we…

Descent theory for linear categories is developed. Given a linear category as an extension of a diagonal category, we introduce descent data, and the category of descent data is isomorphic to the category of representations of the diagonal…

This paper introduces a new approach to the study of certain aspects of Galois module theory by combining ideas arising from the study of the Galois structure of torsors of finite group schemes with techniques coming from relative algebraic…

We examine the Galois groups of the extensions $K((f'\circ f^n)^{-1}(0))/K$ where $K$ is a number field for polynomials $f(x)\in K[x]$. We use our understanding of this group to study the proportion of primes for which $f$ has a $\mathfrak…

We report on recent work concerning a new type of generalised Kac-Moody algebras based on the spaces of differentiable mappings from compact manifolds or homogeneous spaces onto compact Lie groups.

We study the groups in the unit filtration of a finite abelian extension K of the field of p-adic numbers. We determine explicit generators of these groups as modules over the pro-p group ring of the Galois group of K over the p-adic…

We use Galois descent to construct central extensions of twisted forms of split simple Lie algebras over rings. These types of algebras arise naturally in the construction of Extended Affine Lie Algebras. The construction also gives…

This paper formulates a group condition which is enjoyed by absolute Galois groups, and which guarantees that profinite groups satisfying the condition can be approximated as an inverse limit of groups which are profinite analogues of…

Loop groups G as families of mappings of the complex manifold M into another complex manifold N preserving marked points $s_0\in M$ and $y_0\in N$ are investigated. Quasi-invariant measures $\mu $ on G relative to dense subgroups $G'$ are…
