Lie brackets or Lie affgebra structures on several classes of affine spaces of matrices are studied. These include general normalised affine matrices, special normalised affine matrices, anti-symmetric and anti-hermitian normalised affine…
Given any Coxeter group, we define rigid reflections and rigid roots using non-self-intersecting curves on a Riemann surface with labeled curves. When the Coxeter group arises from an acyclic quiver, they are related to the rigid…
We generalize the electrical Lie algebras originally introduced by Lam and Pylyavskyy in several ways. To each Kac-Moody Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ we associate two types (vertex type and edge type) of the generalized electrical algebras.…
Using the general method which was applied to prove finiteness of the set of hyperbolic generalized Cartan matrices of elliptic and parabolic type, we classify all symmetric (and twisted to symmetric) hyperbolic generalized Cartan matrices…
In a recent paper ([1],[2]) we have classified explicitely all the unitary highest weight representations of non compact real forms of semisimple Lie Algebras on Hermitian symmetric space. These results are necessary in order to construct…
The conjugacy of split Cartan subalgebras in the finite dimensional simple case (Chevalley) and in the symmetrizable Kac-Moody case (Peterson-Kac) are fundamental results of the theory of Lie algebras. Among the Kac-Moody Lie algebras the…
We present a unified and completely general formulation of extended geometry, characterised by a Kac-Moody algebra and a highest weight coordinate module. Generalised diffeomorphisms are constructed, as well as solutions to the section…
The analog of the principal SO(3) subalgebra of a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra can be defined for any hyperbolic Kac Moody algebra g(A) associated with a symmetrizable Cartan matrix A, and coincides with the non-compact group…
We show that the rank 10 hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebra $E_{10}$ contains every simply laced hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebra as a Lie subalgebra. Our method is based on an extension of earlier work of Feingold and Nicolai.
We define a new kind quantized enveloping algebra of a generalized Kac-Moody algebra ${\mathcal G}$ by adding a new generator $J$ satisfying $J^m=J$ for some integer $m$. We denote this algebra by $wU_q^{\tau}({\mathcal G})$. This algebra…
We describe the multiplicative invariant algebras of the root lattices of all irreducible root systems under the action of the Weyl group. In each case, a finite system of fundamental invariants is determined and the class group of the…
We consider the variant of Mirror Symmetry Conjecture for K3 surfaces which relates "geometry" of curves of a general member of a family of K3 with "algebraic functions" on the moduli of the mirror family. Lorentzian Kac--Moody algebras are…
We describe Hom-Lie structures on affine Kac-Moody and related Lie algebras, and discuss the question when they form a Jordan algebra.
For a root system of type $B$ we study an algebra similar to a graded Hecke algebra, isomorphic to a subalgebra of the rational Cherednik algebra. We introduce principal series modules over it and prove an irreducibility criterion for these…
In the present note we suggest an affinization of a theorem by Kostrikin et.al. about the decomposition of some complex simple Lie algebras ${\cal G}$ into the algebraic sum of pairwise orthogonal Cartan subalgebras. We point out that the…
In this paper, we determine derivations of Borel subalgebras and their derived subalgebras called nilradicals, in Kac-Moody algebras (and contragredient Lie algebras) over any field of characteristic 0; and we also determine automorphisms…
We use semi-derived Ringel-Hall algebras of quivers with loops to realize the whole quantum Borcherds-Bozec algebras and quantum generalized Kac-Moody algebras.
We present a nontechnical introduction to the hyperbolic Kac Moody algebra E_{10} and summarize our recent attempt to understand the root spaces of Kac Moody algebras of hyperbolic type in terms of a DDF construction appropriate to a…
We consider Borcherds algebras with no real roots and the property that all zeroes in the Borcherds Cartan matrix occur in a single diagonal zero block. It follows that all other entries of the matrix are negative. We give a structure…
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…
