This is an expanded version of the lectures given by the author on the 3rd school "Lie algebras, algebraic groups and invariant theory" in Togliatti, Russia. In these notes we explain the concept of a categorical Kac-Moody action by…

We introduce the notion of a crystal base of a finite dimensional q-deformed Kac module over the quantum superalgebra $U_q(\gl(m|n))$, and prove its existence and uniqueness. In particular, we obtain the crystal base of a finite dimensional…

Smooth modules for affine Kac-Moody algebras have a prime importance for the quantum field theory as they correspond to the representations of the universal affine vertex algebras. But, very little is known about such modules beyond the…

We introduce a new class of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras, which we refer to as continuum Kac-Moody algebras. Their construction is closely related to that of usual Kac-Moody algebras, but they feature a continuum root system with no…

We introduce the notion of dual perfect bases and dual perfect graphs. We show that every integrable highest weight module $V_q(\lambda)$ over a quantum generalized Kac-Moody algebra $U_{q}(\mathcal{g})$ has a dual perfect basis and its…

Quantum Lie algebras are generalizations of Lie algebras which have the quantum parameter h built into their structure. They have been defined concretely as certain submodules of the quantized enveloping algebras. On them the quantum Lie…

We construct a crystal base of the negative half of a quantum orthosymplectic superalgebra. It can be viewed as a limit of the crystal bases of $q$-deformed irreducible oscillator representations. We also give a combinatorial description of…

We construct a crystal base of $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}(m|n))^-$, the negative half of the quantum superalgebra $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}(m|n))$. We give a combinatorial description of the associated crystal $\mathscr{B}_{m|n}(\infty)$, which is equal…

We discuss the higher dimensional generalizations of the Virasoro and Affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras. We present an explicit construction for a central extensions of the Lie Algebra $Map (X, \g)$ where $\g$ is a finite-dimensional Lie…

Let $\mathfrak{g}(A)$ be the Kac-Moody algebra with respect to a symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix $A$. We give an explicit presentation of the fix-point Lie subalgebra $\mathfrak{k}(A)$ of $\mathfrak{g}(A)$ with respect to the…

We extend a conjugacy Theorem of Cartan subalgebras, originally established for symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras, to the broader context of affine Kac-Moody superalgebras. Along the way, we obtain several results that deepen our…

Let $G$ be a Kac-Moody group over a finite field corresponding to a generalized Cartan matrix $A$, as constructed by Tits. It is known that $G$ admits the structure of a BN-pair, and acts on its corresponding building. We study the complete…

We prove a general theorem for constructing integral quantum cluster algebras over ${\mathbb{Z}}[q^{\pm 1/2}]$, namely that under mild conditions the integral forms of quantum nilpotent algebras always possess integral quantum cluster…

We introduce the notion of quantum $N$-toroidal algebras as natural generalization of the quantum toroidal algebras as well as extended quantized GIM algebras of $N$-fold affinization. We show that the quantum $N$-toroidal algebras are…

Borcherds algebras represent a new class of Lie algebras which have almost all the properties that ordinary Kac-Moody algebras have, and the only major difference is that these generalized Kac-Moody algebras are allowed to have imaginary…

We review the construction of generalized integrable hierarchies of partial differential equations, associated to affine Kac-Moody algebras, that include those considered by Drinfel'd and Sokolov. These hierarchies can be used to construct…

We construct the Fock space representations of classical quantum affine algebras using combinatorics of Young walls. We also show that the crystal graphs of the Fock space representations can be realized as the abstract crystal consisting…
