For a nondegenerate additive subgroup $G$ of the $n$-dimensional vector space $F^n$ over an algebraically closed field $F$ of characteristic zero, there is an associative algebra and a Lie algebra of Weyl type $W(G,n)$ spanned by all…

It is known that the semi-infinite cohomology spaces of the infinitely twisted nilpotent subalgebra in an affine Lie algebra $g$ with coefficients in an integrable simple module over the affine Lie algebra have a base enumerated by elements…

Semi-infinite forms on the moduli spaces of genus-zero Riemann surfaces with punctures and local coordinates are introduced. A partial operad for semi-infinite forms is constructed. Using semi-infinite forms and motivated by a partial…

Generalizing some of our earlier work, we prove natural presentations of the principal subspaces of the level one standard modules for the untwisted affine Lie algebras of types A, D and E, and also of certain related spaces. As a…

We prove a highest weight theorem classifying irerducible finite--dimensional representations of quantum affine algebras and survey what is currently known about the structure of these representations.

We construct explicitly the $q$-vertex operators (intertwining operators) for the level one modules $V(\Lambda_i)$ of the classical quantum affine algebras of twisted types using interacting bosons, where $i=0, 1$ for $A_{2n-1}^{(2)}$,…

We construct a representation of $U_q(\widehat{sl}_2)$ at level $-1/2$ by using the bosonic Fock spaces. The irreducible modules are obtained as the kernel of a certain operator, in contrast to the construction by Feingold and Frenkel for…

Bounded and unbounded weighted composition operators on $L^2$ spaces over $\sigma$-finite measure spaces are investigated. A variety of questions related to seminormality of such operators are discussed.

We introduce and study a category $\text{Fin}$ of modules of the Borel subalgebra of a quantum affine algebra $U_q\mathfrak{g}$, where the commutative algebra of Drinfeld generators $h_{i,r}$, corresponding to Cartan currents, has finitely…

We establish rigid tensor category structure on finitely-generated weight modules for the subregular $W$-algebras of $\mathfrak{sl}_n$ at levels $ - n + \frac{n}{n+1}$ (the $\mathcal{B}_{n+1}$-algebras of Creutzig-Ridout-Wood) and at levels…

We generalize Feigin and Miwa's construction of extended vertex operator (super)algebras $A_{k}(sl(2))$ for other types of simple Lie algebras. For all the constructed extended vertex operator (super)algebras, irreducible modules are…

We bosonize certain components of level $\ell$ $U_q(\hat{sl}_2)$-intertwiners of $(\ell + 1)$-dimensions. For $\ell = 2$, these intertwiners, after certain modification by bosonic vertex operators, are added to the algebra $U_q(\hat{sl}_2)$…

We consider two different methods of associating vertex algebraic structures with the level $1$ principal subspaces for $U_q (\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}_2)$. In the first approach, we introduce certain commutative operators and study the…

We prove that an irreducible quasifinite module over the central extension of the Lie algebra of $N\times N$-matrix differential operators on the circle is either a highest or lowest weight module or else a module of the intermediate…

The $q$-vertex operators of Frenkel and Reshetikhin are studied by means of a $q$-deformation of the Wakimoto module for the quantum affine algebra $U_q(\widehat{\sl}_2)$ at an arbitrary level $k\ne 0,-2$. A Fock module version of the…

We study the properties of level zero modules over quantized affine algebras. The proof of the conjecture on the cyclicity of tensor products by Akasaka and the present author is given. Several properties of modules generated by extremal…

We prove that any unitary highest weight module over a universal minimal quantum affine $W$-algebra at non-critical level descends to its simple quotient. We find the defining relations of the unitary simple minimal quantum affine…

We study the universal integrable modules W_q(m) of level zero for quantum affine sl_2 and a family of maximal finite--dimensional quotients of these modules. We show that these all have dimension 2^m. Using this, we are able to realize…

We present a new application of affine Lie algebras to massive quantum field theory in 2 dimensions, by investigating the $q\to 1$ limit of the q-deformed affine $\hat{sl(2)}$ symmetry of the sine-Gordon theory, this limit occurring at the…

Let $\mathfrak g$ be a finite simple Lie algebra, and let $r$ denote the ratio of the square length of long roots to that of short roots. Let $\wp>2r$ be an integer and $\zeta$ a primitive $\wp$-th root of unity. Denote by $\mathcal…
