Polyhedral Realization of Crystal Bases for Generalized Kac-moody Algebras
In this paper, we give polyhedral realization of the crystal B(∞) of U− q (g) for the generalized Kac-Moody algebras. As applications, we give explicit descriptions of crystals for the generalized Kac-Moody algebras of rank 2, 3 and Monster Lie algebras. Introduction In his study of Conway and Norton’s Moonshine Conjecture [3] for the infinite dimensional Z-graded representation V ♮ of the Mons...
متن کاملA Theory of Lorentzian Kac–moody Algebras
We present a variant of the Theory of Lorentzian (i. e. with a hyperbolic generalized Cartan matrix) Kac–Moody algebras recently developed by V. A. Gritsenko and the author. It is closely related with and strongly uses results of R. Borcherds. This theory should generalize well-known Theories of finite Kac–Moody algebras (i. e. classical semi-simple Lie algebras corresponding to positive genera...
متن کاملOn Classification of Lorentzian Kac–moody Algebras
We discuss a general theory of Lorentzian Kac–Moody algebras which should be a hyperbolic analogy of the classical theories of finite-dimensional semisimple and affine Kac–Moody algebras. First examples of Lorentzian Kac–Moody algebras were found by Borcherds. We consider general finiteness results about the set of Lorentzian Kac–Moody algebras and the problem of their classification. As an exa...
متن کاملAlmost split real forms for hyperbolic Kac-Moody Lie algebras
A Borel-Tits theory was developped for almost split forms of symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebras [J. of Algebra 171, 43-96 (1995)]. In this paper, we look to almost split real forms for symmetrizable hyperbolic KacMoody Lie algebras and we establish a complete list of these forms, in terms of their Satake-Tits index, for the strictly hyperbolic ones and for those which are obtained as (hyperbo...
متن کاملLecture 6: Kac-moody Algebras, Reductive Groups, and Representations
We start by introducing Kac-Moody algebras and completing the classification of finite dimensional semisimple Lie algebras. We then discuss the classification of finite dimensional representations of semisimple Lie algebras (and, more generally, integrable highest weight representations of Kac-Moody algebras). We finish by discussing the structure and representation theory of reductive algebrai...
متن کاملStructure and Representation Theory of Infinite-dimensional Lie Algebras
Kac-Moody algebras are a generalization of the finite-dimensional semisimple Lie algebras that have many characteristics similar to the finite-dimensional ones. These possibly infinite-dimensional Lie algebras have found applications everywhere from modular forms to conformal field theory in physics. In this thesis we give two main results of the theory of Kac-Moody algebras. First, we present ...
