We define the formal affine Demazure algebra and formal affine Hecke algebra associated to a Kac-Moody root system. We prove the structure theorems of these algebras, hence, extending several result and construction (presentation in terms…
$\pi$-systems are fundamental in the study of Kac-Moody Lie algebras since they arise naturally in the embedding problems. Dynkin introduced them first and showed how they also appear in the classification of semisimple subalgebras of a…
We study Apollonian circle packings in relation to a certain rank 4 indefinite Kac-Moody root system $\Phi$. We introduce the generating function $Z(\mathbf{s})$ of a packing, an exponential series in four variables with an Apollonian…
We follow the dual approach to Coxeter systems and show for Weyl groups a criterium which decides whether a set of reflections is generating the group depending on the root and the coroot lattice. Further we study special generating sets…
A relationship between continued fractions and Weyl groupoids of Cartan schemes of rank two is found. This allows to decide easily if a given Cartan scheme of rank two admits a finite root system. We obtain obstructions and sharp bounds for…
Starting from Borcherds' fake monster Lie algebra we construct a sequence of six generalized Kac-Moody algebras whose denominator formulas, root systems and all root multiplicities can be described explicitly. The root systems decompose…
We construct a class of static, axially symmetric solutions representing razor-thin disks of matter in an Integrable Weyl-Dirac theory proposed in Found. Phys. 29, 1303 (1999). The main differences between these solutions and the…
We study walk algebras and Hecke algebras for Kac-Moody root systems. Each choice of orientation for the set of real roots gives rise to a corresponding "oriented" basis for each of these algebras. We show that the notion of distinguished…
Many integrable theories can be formulated universally in terms of Lie algebraic root systems. Well-studied are conformally invariant scalar field theories of Toda type and their massive versions, which can be expressed in terms of simple…
We provide a general construction procedure for antilinearly invariant complex root spaces. The proposed method is generic and may be applied to any Weyl group allowing to take any element of the group as a starting point for the…
A Kac-Moody algebra is called hyperbolic if it corresponds to a generalized Cartan matrix of hyperbolic type. We study root subsystems of root systems of hyperbolic algebras. In this paper, we classify maximal rank regular hyperbolic…
We extend properties of the weak order on finite Coxeter groups to Weyl groupoids admitting a finite root system. In particular, we determine the topological structure of intervals with respect to weak order, and show that the set of…
We discuss the classification of reflection subgroups of finite and affine Weyl groups from the point of view of their root systems. A short case free proof is given of the well known classification of the isomorphism classes of reflection…
We present algorithms to compute generalized root systems of Nichols algebras of diagonal type and of contragredient Lie superalgebras. As a consequence, we obtain an algorithm to compute the Lyndon words in the Kharchenko PBW basis…
We generalize the definition and properties of root systems to complex reflection groups - roots become rank one projective modules over the ring of integers of a number field k. In the irreducible case, we provide a classification of root…
We propose a novel way to define imaginary root subgroups associated with (timelike) imaginary roots of hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebras. Using in an essential way the theory of unitary irreducible representation of covers of the group…
We introduce and study "2-roots", which are symmetrized tensor products of orthogonal roots of Kac--Moody algebras. We concentrate on the case where $W$ is the Weyl group of a simply laced Y-shaped Dynkin diagram $Y_{a,b,c}$ having $n$…
In this work we characterize a full Kostant-Toda system in terms of a family of matrix polynomials orthogonal with respect to a complex matrix measure. In order to study the solution of this dynamical system we give explicit expressions for…
We investigate regular hyperbolic subalgebras of hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebras via their Weyl groups. We classify all subgroups relations between Weyl groups of hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebras, and show that for every pair of a group and…
We provide the first formulae for the weights of all simple highest weight modules over Kac-Moody algebras. For generic highest weights, we present a formula for the weights of simple modules similar to the Weyl-Kac character formula. For…
