We relate two apparently different bases in the representations of affine Lie algebras of type A: one arising from statistical mechanics, the other from gauge theory. We show that the two are governed by the same combinatorics and therefore…
The focus of this thesis is on (1) the role of Ka\v c-Moody (KM) algebras in string theory and the development of techniques for systematically building string theory models based on higher level ($K\geq 2$) KM algebras and (2) fractional…
A lot of developments made during the last years show that Kac-Moody algebras play an important role in the algebraic structure of some supergravity theories. These algebras would generate infinite-dimensional symmetry groups. The possible…
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 determine the regular irreducible components of the variety mod(A,d), where A=kQ/I is a string algebra and I is generated by a set of paths of length two. Our case is among the first examples of descriptions of irreducible components,…
We consider quiver representations respecting a quiver automorphism and show that the dimension vectors of the indecomposables are precisely the positive roots of an associated symmetrisable Kac-Moody Lie algebra. Moreover, every such Lie…
We introduce a non-degenerate bilinear form and use it to provide a new characterization of quantum Kac-Moody superalgebras with no isotropic odd simple roots. We show that the spin quiver Hecke algebras introduced by…
In this paper we construct a class of new irreducible modules over untwisted affine Kac-Moody algebras $\widetilde{\mathfrak{g}}$, generalizing and including both highest weight modules and Whittaker modules. These modules allow us to…
To every $k$-dimensional modular invariant vector space we associate a modular form on $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ of weight $2k$. We explore number theoretic properties of this form and find a sufficient condition for its vanishing which yields…
In the present article we introduce and study a class of topological reflection spaces that we call Kac-Moody symmetric spaces. These generalize Riemannian symmetric spaces of non-compact type. We observe that in a non-spherical Kac-Moody…
Non-simply laced quivers, despite the lack of complete Lagrangian descriptions, play an important role in characterising moduli spaces of supersymmetric field theories. Notably, the moduli space of instantons in non-simply laced gauge…
Suppose that $Q$ is a connected quiver without oriented cycles and $\sigma$ is an automorphism of $Q$. Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field whose characteristic does not divide the order of the cyclic group $\langle\sigma\rangle$. The…
By using characteristic cycles, we build a morphism from the canonical bases of integrable highest weight modules of quantum groups to the top Borel-Moore homology groups of Nakajima's quiver and tensor product varieties, and compare the…
We give the first positive formulas for the weights of every simple highest weight module $L(\lambda)$ over an arbitrary Kac-Moody algebra. Under a mild condition on the highest weight, we also express the weights of $L(\lambda)$ as an…
Let $\fg$ be any untwisted affine Kac-Moody algebra, $\mu$ any fixed complex number, and $\wt\fg(\mu)$ the corresponding toroidal extended affine Lie algebra of nullity two. For any $k$-tuple $\bm{\lambda}=({\lambda}_1, \cdots,…
There exist principal $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ subalgebras for hyperbolic Kac-Moody Lie algebras. In the case of rank 2 symmetric hyperbolic Kac-Moody Lie algebras, certain $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ subalgebras are constructed. These subalgebras are…
We investigate the representations of a class of conformal Galilei algebras in one spatial dimension with central extension. This is done by explicitly constructing all singular vectors within the Verma modules, proving their completeness…
In this article, we realize the subquotient based modules of certain tensor products or restricted modules via Lusztig's perverse sheaves on multi-framed quivers, and provide a construction of their canonical bases. As an application, we…
An irreducible weight module of an affine Kac-Moody algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ is called dense if its support is equal to a coset in $\mathfrak{h}^{*}/Q$. Following a conjecture of V. Futorny about affine Kac-Moody algebras $\mathfrak{g}$, an…
First, we prove the Kac-Wakimoto conjecture on modular invariance of characters of exceptional affine W-algebras. In fact more generally we prove modular invariance of characters of all lisse W-algebras obtained through Hamiltonian…
