We derive sufficient conditions under which the ``second'' Hamiltonian structure of a class of generalized KdV-hierarchies defines one of the classical $\cal W$-algebras obtained through Drinfel'd-Sokolov Hamiltonian reduction. These…
We review the construction of Drinfeld-Sokolov type hierarchies and classical W-algebras in a Hamiltonian symmetry reduction framework. We describe the list of graded regular elements in the Heisenberg subalgebras of the nontwisted loop…
Generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov (DS) hierarchies are constructed through local reductions of Hamiltonian flows generated by monodromy invariants on the dual of a loop algebra. Following earlier work of De Groot et al, reductions based upon…
We investigate the algebraic structure of integrable hierarchies that, we propose, underlie models of $W$-gravity coupled to matter. More precisely, we concentrate on the dispersionless limit of the topological subclass of such theories, by…
We derive explicit formulas for lambda-brackets of the affine classical W-algebras attached to the minimal and short nilpotent elements of any simple Lie algebra g. This is used to compute explicitly the first non-trivial PDE of the…
Let X be the group of weights of a maximal torus of a simply connected semisimple group over C and let W be the Weyl group. The semidirect product W(Q\otimes X/X) is called the extended Weyl group. There is a natural C(v)-algebra H called…
The dispersionless limit of generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov hierarchies associated to primitive regular conjugacy class of Weyl group W(g) is discussed. The map from these generalized Drinfeld - Sokolov hierarchies to algebraic solutions to…
The Lie algebra $\mathcal{D}$ of regular differential operators on the circle has a universal central extension $\hat{\mathcal{D}}$. The invariant subalgebra $\hat{\mathcal{D}}^+$ under an involution preserving the principal gradation was…
We report on generalizations of the KdV-type integrable hierarchies of Drinfel'd and Sokolov. These hierarchies lead to the existence of new classical $W$-algebras, which arise as the second Hamiltonian structure of the hierarchies. In…
We study local algebras, which are structures similar to $\mathbb{Z}$-graded algebras concentrated in degrees $-1,0,1$, but without a product defined for pairs of elements at the same degree $\pm1$. To any triple consisting of a Kac-Moody…
The aim of this paper is to establish a pseudo-differential Weyl calculus on graded nilpotent Lie groups $G$ which extends the celebrated Weyl calculus on $\mathbb{R}^n$. To reach this goal, we develop a symbolic calculus for a very general…
We generalize the basic results of Vinberg's \theta-groups, or periodically graded reductive Lie algebras, to fields of good positive characteristic. To this end we clarify the relationship between the little Weyl group and the (standard)…
Motivated by work of Kac and Lusztig, we define a root system and a Weyl groupoid for a large class of semisimple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over an arbitrary Hopf algebra. The obtained combinatorial structure fits perfectly into an existing…
The parentage between Weyl pairs, generalized Pauli group and unitary group is investigated in detail. We start from an abstract definition of the Heisenberg-Weyl group on the field R and then switch to the discrete Heisenberg-Weyl group or…
The graded Hecke algebra for a finite Weyl group is intimately related to the geometry of the Springer correspondence. A construction of Drinfeld produces an analogue of a graded Hecke algebra for any finite subgroup of GL(V). This paper…
For the algebraic group $SL_{l+1}(\mathbb{C})$ we describe a system of positive roots associated to conjugacy classes in its Weyl group. Using this we explicitly describe the algebra of regular functions on certain transverse slices to…
We summarize the definition of the Weyl groupoid using supercategory approach in order to investigate quantum superalgebras at roots of unity. We show how the structure of a Hopf superalgebra on a quantum superalgebra is determined by the…

We construct a monoidal category $\mathscr{C}_{w,v}$ which categorifies the doubly-invariant algebra $^{N'(w)}\mathbb{C}[N]^{N(v)}$ associated with Weyl group elements $w$ and $v$. It gives, after a localization, the coordinate algebra…
We consider skew-commutative subalgebras in Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum groups at a root of unity $\zeta$ generated by primitive power elements. We classify the centrality and commutativity of these skew-polynomial algebras depending on the Lie…
