We define the formal affine Demazure algebra and formal affine Hecke algebra associated to a Kac-Moody root system. We prove the structure theorems of these algebras, hence, extending several result and construction (presentation in terms…

The classical Tits construction of the exceptional simple Lie algebras has been extended in a couple of directions by using either Jordan superalgebras or composition superalgebras. These extensions are reviewed here. The outcome has been…

The parastatistics algebra is a superalgebra with (even) parafermi and (odd) parabose creation and annihilation operators. The states in the parastatistics Fock-like space are shown to be in one-to-one correspondence with the Super…

In 1983, Feingold and Frenkel discovered a relation between Siegel modular forms of genus two and a rank-three hyperbolic Kac--Moody algebra extending the affine Lie algebra of type $A_1$. It inspires a problem to explore more general…

We compute the extremal plurisubharmonic function of the real torus viewed as a compact subset of its natural algebraic complexification.

A rational pseudo-rotation $f$ of the torus is a homeomorphism homotopic to the identity with a rotation set consisting of a single vector $v$ of rational coordinates. We give a classification for rational pseudo-rotations with an invariant…

We construct a Borcherds Kac-Moody (BKM) superalgebra on which the Conway group Co$_0$ acts faithfully. We show that the BKM algebra is generated by the BRST-closed states in a chiral superstring theory. We use this construction to produce…

Cancellative dimer algebras on a torus have many nice algebraic and homological properties. However, these nice properties disappear for dimer algebras on higher genus surfaces. We consider a new class of quiver algebras on surfaces, called…

We construct a functor which maps conjugate pseudo-Anosov automorphisms of a surface to the so-called stably isomorphic stationary AF-algebras; the functor gives new topological invariants of three dimensional manifolds coming from the…

We consider a normal complete rational variety with a torus action of complexity one. In the main results, we determine the roots of the automorphism group and give an explicit description of the root system of its semisimple part. The…

We consider the classification of supersymmetric black hole solutions to five-dimensional STU gauged supergravity that admit torus symmetry. This reduces to a problem in toric K\"ahler geometry on the base space. We introduce the class of…

We give a provisional construction of the Kac-Moody Lie algebra module structure on the hyperbolic restriction of the intersection cohomology complex of the Coulomb branch of a framed quiver gauge theory, as a refinement of the conjectural…

We establish the correspondence between, on one side, the possible gaugings and massive deformations of half-maximal supergravity coupled to vector multiplets and, on the other side, certain generators of the associated very extended…

A 2-toroidal Lie superalgebra is constructed using bosonic fields and a ghost field. The superalgebra contains $osp(1|2n)^{(1)}$ as a distinguished subalgebra and behaves similarly to the toroidal Lie superalgebra of type $B(0, n)$.…

We classify all complex $7$- and $8$-dimensional dual mock-Lie algebras by algebraic and geometric way. Also we find all non-trivial complex $9$-dimensional dual mock-Lie algebras.

We explain how to perform topological twisting of supersymmetric field theories in the language of factorization algebras. Namely, given a supersymmetric factorization algebra with a choice of a topological supercharge we construct an…

String theory, specifically type-II superstring theory, can be formulated in any ten-dimensional signature. To facilitate the study of supergravity and superstring theories in this setting, we present a uniform construction of supersymmetry…

$\pi$-systems are fundamental in the study of Kac-Moody Lie algebras since they arise naturally in the embedding problems. Dynkin introduced them first and showed how they also appear in the classification of semisimple subalgebras of a…

Given a modular tensor category $\mathscr{C}$, we construct an associative algebra $\mathrm{Tor({\mathscr{C}}})$, which we call the torus algebra. We prove that the torus algebra is semisimple by explicitly constructing all the simple…

In this paper we discuss the "Factorization phenomenon" which occurs when a representation of a Lie algebra is restricted to a subalgebra, and the result factors into a tensor product of smaller representations of the subalgebra. We analyze…
