Automorphisms of finite order and real forms of "smooth" affine Kac-Moody algebras are studied, i.e. of 2-dimensional extensions of the algebra of smooth loops in a simple Lie algebra. It is shown that they can be parametrized by certain…
We prove a general black box result which produces algebras of pseudodifferential operators (ps.d.o.s) on noncompact manifolds, together with a precise principal symbol calculus. Our construction (which also applies in parameter-dependent…
We construct a generalised notion of Kac-Moody algebras using smooth maps from the non-compact manifolds ${\cal M}=$SL$(2,\mathbb R)$ and ${\cal M}=$ SL$(2,\mathbb R)/U(1)$ to a finite-dimensional simple Lie group $G$. This construction is…
The Lie-algebraic method approximates differential operators that are formal polynomials of {1,x,d/dx} by linear operators acting on a finite dimensional space of polynomials. In this paper we prove that the rank of the n-dimensional…
We realize the current algebra of a Kac-Moody algebra as a quotient of a semi-direct product of the Kac-Moody Lie algebra and the free Lie algebra of the Kac-Moody algebra. We use this realization to study the representations of the current…
Lie algebra involutions and their fixed-point subalgebras give rise to symmetric spaces and real forms of complex Lie algebras, and are well-studied in the context of symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras. In this paper we study a…
We construct an algebra of pseudodifferential operators on each groupoid in a class that generalizes differentiable groupoids to allow manifolds with corners. We show that this construction encompasses many examples. The subalgebra of…
Dzhumadil'daev has classified all tensor module extensions of $diff(N)$, the diffeomorphism algebra in $N$ dimensions, and its subalgebras of divergence free, Hamiltonian, and contact vector fields. I review his results using explicit…
A class of simple filtered Lie algebras of polynomial growth with increasing filtration is distinguished and presentations of these algebras are explicitely described for the simplest examples. Lie (super)algebras of this class appear in…
The canonical projections of the unit spheres are generalized to special generic maps and round fold maps, for example. They are generalizations from the viewpoint of singularity theory of differentiable maps and these maps restrict the…
It is proposed that instead of normal representations one should look at cocycles of group extensions valued in certain groups of unitary operators acting in a Hilbert space (e.g the Fock space of chiral fermions), when dealing with groups…
The expansion method of Lie algebras by a semigroup or S-expansion is generalized to act directly on the group manifold, and not only at the level of its Lie algebra. The consistency of this generalization with the dual formulation of the…
The commutator anomalies (Schwinger terms) of current algebras in $3+1$ dimensions are computed in terms of the Wodzicki residue of pseudodifferential operators; the result can be written as a (twisted) Radul 2-cocycle for the Lie algebra…
Utilizing Lie superalgebra (LS) realizations via the Relative Parabose Set algebra $P_{BF}$, combined with earlier results on the Fock-like representations of $P_{BF}^{(1,1)}$, we proceed to the construction of a family of Fock-like…
This is a full revised version of the previous same titled article. The 2-cocycle of the central extension of the current algebra on the three sphere is taken the place of a new quarternion valued one, that is defined by the boundary Dirac…
S-expansions of three-dimensional real Lie algebras are considered. It is shown that the expansion operation allows one to obtain a non-unimodular Lie algebra from a unimodular one. Nevertheless S-expansions define no ordering on the…
To study operator algebras with symmetries in a wide sense we introduce a notion of {\em relative convolution operators} induced by a Lie algebra. Relative convolutions recover many important classes of operators, which have been already…
We present the Wakimoto construction of the super OSp(1,2) and SL(2,1) Kac-Moody algebras and the free field representation of the corresponding WZW models. After imposing suitable constraints, we can lead the Feigin-Fuchs representation of…
Suppose a finite group acts on a scheme $X$ and a finite-dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. The associated equivariant map algebra is the Lie algebra of equivariant regular maps from $X$ to $\mathfrak{g}$. The irreducible…
We construct new extensions of current and diffeomorphism algebras in N>3 dimensions, which are related to the Mickelsson-Faddeev algebra. The result is compatible with Dzhumadil'daev's classification of diffeomorphism cocycles. We also…
