We establish that for the type I Lie superalgebras $sl(m/n)$ and $osp(2/2n)$, each Kac module admits a 1 parameter family of indecomposable double extensions. The result follows from the explicit evaluation of the $H^1$ Lie superalgebra…
Using our previous results on the systematic construction of invariant differential operators for non-compact semisimple Lie groups we classify the special reduced multiplets and minimal representations in the case of SO(p,q).
In the present paper we continue the project of systematic construction of invariant differential operators on the example of the non-compact algebras $su(n,n)$. Earlier were given the main multiplets of indecomposable elementary…
Infinite-dimensional Lie algebras are introduced, which are only partially graded, and are specified by indices lying on cyclotomic rings. They may be thought of as generalizations of the Onsager algebra, but unlike it, or its sl(n)…
The authors define a Category $\mathcal{O}$ for any quasi-reductive Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{g}$ with respect to a triangular decomposition. This much needed approach unifies many important constructions in the existing literature in a…
In this paper, we study Lie superalgebras of $2\times 2$ matrix-valued first-order differential operators on the complex line. We first completely classify all such superalgebras of finite dimension. Among the finite-dimensional…
We classify Lie n-algebras possessing an invariant lorentzian inner product.
We classify simple bounded weight modules over the complex simple Lie superalgebras $\mathfrak{sl}(\infty |\infty)$ and $\mathfrak{osp} (m | 2n)$, when at least one of $m$ and $n$ equals $\infty$. For $\mathfrak{osp} (m | 2n)$ such modules…
We present the subalgebra structure of sl(3,O), a particular real form of e6 chosen for its relevance to particle physics and its close relation to generalized Lorentz groups. We use an explicit representation of the Lie group SL(3,O) to…
In this paper we develop a theory for constructing an invariant of closed oriented 3-manifolds, given a certain type of Hopf algebra. Examples are given by a quantised enveloping algebra of a semisimple Lie algebra, or by a semisimple…
There is a surprising isomorphism between the quantised universal enveloping algebras of osp(1|2n) and so(2n+1). This same isomorphism emerged in recent work of Mikhaylov and Witten in the context of string theory as a T-duality composed…
We construct a new class of finite dimensional indecomposable representations of simple superalgebras which may explain, in a natural way, the existence of the heavier elementary particles. In type I Lie superalgebras sl(m/n) and osp(2/2n),…
It is shown that there exists an isomorphism between q-oscillator systems covariant under $ SU_q(n) $ and $ SU_{q^{-1}}(n) $. By the isomorphism, the defining relations of $ SU_{q^{-1}}(n) $ covariant q-oscillator system are transmuted into…
We describe explicitly Lie superalgebra isomorphisms between the Lie superalgebras of first-order superdifferential operators on supermanifolds, showing in particular that any such isomorphism induces a diffeomorphism of the supermanifolds.…
We describe the Lie bialgebra structure on the Lie superalgebra sl(2,1) related to an r-matrix that cannot be obtained by a Belavin-Drinfeld type construction. This structure makes sl(2,1) into the Drinfeld double of a four-dimensional…
Over algebraically closed fields of characteristic p>2, prolongations of the simple finite dimensional Lie algebras and Lie superalgebras with Cartan matrix are studied for certain simplest gradings of these algebras. Several new simple Lie…
All results concern characteristic 2. Two procedures that to every simple Lie algebra assign simple Lie superalgebras, most of the latter new, are offered. We prove that every simple finite-dimensional Lie superalgebra is obtained as the…
It is shown that the quantised enveloping algebra of sl(n) contains a quantum Lie algebra, defined by means of axioms similar to Woronowicz's., This gives rise to Lie algebra-like generators and relations for the locally finite part of the…
We investigate several matrix models based on super Lie algebras, osp(1|32,R), u(1|16,16) and gl(1|32,R). They are natural generalizations of IIB matrix model and were first proposed by Smolin. In particular, we study the supersymmetry…
We introduce a double complex that can be associated to certain Lie algebras, and show that its cohomology determines an obstruction to the existence of a half-flat SU(3)-structure. We obtain a classification of the 6-dimensional…
