We introduce a finite-dimensional algebra that controls the possible boundary conditions of a conformal field theory. For theories that are obtained by modding out a Z_2 symmetry (corresponding to a so-called D_odd-type, or half-integer…
The object of this work is the systematical study of a certain type of generalized Cartan matrices associated with the Dynkin diagrams that characterize Cartan-Lie and affine Kac-Moody algebras. These generalized matrices are associated to…
The problem of constructing twisted modules for a vertex operator algebra and an automorphism has been solved in particular in two contexts. One of these two constructions is that initiated by the third author in the case of a lattice…
A novel method of determining which Dynkin diagrams represent simple finite-dimensional Lie algebras over $\mathbb{C}$ is presented. It is based on a condition that is both necessary and sufficient for a suitably defined Cartan matrix to be…
We study automorphisms of the free associative algebra K<x,y,z> over a field K which fix z and such that the images of x, y are linear with respect to x, y. We prove that some of these automorphisms are wild in the class of all…
We construct 2 families of automorphic forms related to twisted fake monster algebras and calculate their Fourier expansions. This gives a new proof of their denominator identities and shows that they define automorphic forms of singular…
A cohomology theory of root systems emerges naturally in the context of Automorphic Lie Algebras, where it helps formulating some structure theory questions. In particular, one can find concrete models for an Automorphic Lie Algebra by…
To every minimal model of a complete local isolated cDV singularity Donovan--Wemyss associate a finite dimensional symmetric algebra known as the contraction algebra. We construct the first known standard derived equivalences between these…
We define and study twisted support varieties for modules over an Artin algebra, where the twist is induced by an automorphism of the algebra. Under a certain finite generation hypothesis, we show that the twisted variety of a module…
We present a classification of characteristic Dynkin diagrams for the $A_N$, $B_N$, $C_N$ and $D_N$ algebras. This classification is related to the classification of \cw(\cg,\ck) algebras arising from non-Abelian Toda models, and we argue…
The coefficient algebra of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra on a finite-dimensional representation is defined as the subalgebra generated by all coefficients of the corresponding characteristic polynomial. We explore connections between…
We introduce and study certain hyperbolic versions of automorphic Lie algebras related to the modular group. Let $\Gamma$ be a finite index subgroup of $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$ with an action on a complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak…
We show that a canonical procedure of extending generalized Dynkin diagrams gives rise to families of Kac-Moody groups that satisfy homological stability. We also briefly sketch some emergent structure that appears on stabilization. Our…
We study the action of Dynkin diagram automorphisms $\sigma$ on generalized Gaudin algebras, focusing in particular on the big Gaudin algebra $\mathcal{B}(\mathfrak{g}) \subset (U(\mathfrak{g}) \otimes S(\mathfrak{g}))^{\mathfrak{g}}$ and…
We investigate the structure of the fixed-point algebra of $\mathcal{O}_n$ under the action of the cyclic permutation of the generating isometries. We prove that it is $*$-isomorphic with $\mathcal{O}_n$, thus generalizing a result of Choi…
We develop an algebraic formalism for topological $\mathbb{T}$-duality. More precisely, we show that topological $\mathbb{T}$-duality actually induces an isomorphism between noncommutative motives that in turn implements the well-known…
An algebra $L$ over a field $\Bbb F$, in which product is denoted by $[\,,\,]$, is said to be \textit{ Lie type algebra} if for all elements $a,b,c\in L$ there exist $\alpha, \beta\in \Bbb F$ such that $\alpha\neq 0$ and $[[a,b],c]=\alpha…
The most basic structure of chiral conformal field theory (CFT) is the Verlinde ring. Freed-Hopkins-Teleman have expressed the Verlinde ring for the CFT's associated to loop groups, as twisted equivariant K-theory. We build on their work to…
The Drinfeld upper half-planes play the role of symmetric spaces in the $p$-adic analytic world. We find the automorphism group of a product of such spaces, where each may be defined over a different field. We deduce a rigidity theorem for…
We study a new class of infinite dimensional Lie algebras, which has important applications to the theory of integrable equations. The construction of these algebras is very similar to the one for automorphic functions and this motivates…
