We consider the extended superconformal algebras of the Knizhnik-Bershadsky type with $W$-algebra like composite operators occurring in the commutation relations, but with generators of conformal dimension 1,$\frac{3}{2}$ and 2, only. These…

We study and give a complete classification of good $\ZZ$-gradings of all simple finite-dimensional Lie algebras. This problem arose in the quantum Hamiltonian reduction for affine Lie algebras.

That announcement gives the structure of totally reducible linear Lie algebras which are the Lie algebra of the holonomy group of (at least) one torsion-free connection. The result uses the (already known) classi cation of the irreducible…

The existence of closed orbits of real algebraic groups on certain real algebraic spaces is established. As an application it is shown that if $G$ is a real reductive group with Iwasawa decomposition $G=KAN$, then all unipotent subgroups of…

Let $G$ be a simple simply-connected algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ with $\mathfrak{g}={\rm Lie}(G)$. We discuss various properties of nilpotent orbits in $\mathfrak{g}$, which have previously…

We classify the cohomology spaces $H^2(\mathfrak{g},K)$ for all filiform nilpotent Lie algebras of dimension $n\le 11$ over $K$ and for certain classes of algebras of dimension $n\ge 12$. The result is applied to the determination of affine…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a simple Lie algebra: its dual space $\mathfrak{g}^*$ is a Poisson variety. It is well known that for each nilpotent element $f$ in $\mathfrak{g}$, it is possible to construct a new Poisson structure by Hamiltonian…

The relationship between the quasi-exactly solvable problems and W-algebras is revealed. This relationship enabled one to formulate a new general method for building multi-dimensional and multi-channel exactly and quasi-exactly solvable…

This paper is about nilpotent orbits of reductive groups over local non-Archimedean fields. In this paper we will try to identify for which groups there are only finitely many nilpotent orbits, for which groups the nilpotent orbits are…
