چکیده

For a given weight of a complex simple Lie algebra, the q-analog of Kostant’s partition function is a polynomial valued function in the variable q, where the coefficient of q is the number of ways the weight can be written as a nonnegative integral sum of exactly k positive roots. In this paper we determine generating functions for the q-analog of Kostant’s partition function when the weight in question is the highest root of the classical Lie algebras of types B, C, and D, and the exceptional Lie algebras of type G2, F4, E6, E7, and E8. ∗ This research was supported by research funds from Harvey Mudd College.

Let G be a connected complex semisimple algebraic group, and T a maximal torus inside a Borel subgroup B , with g, t, and b their Lie algebras. Let V be a representation in the category & for g. The t-decomposition V = E9 JlEt* V Jl of V into a direct sum of finite-dimensional weight spaces is central in the representation theory of g. In this paper, we introduce on weight spaces a new structur...

Universal Central Extension of Current Superalgebras

Representation as well as central extension are two of the most important concepts in the theory of Lie (super)algebras. Apart from the interest of mathematicians, the attention of physicist are also drawn to these two subjects because of the significant amount of their applications in Physics. In fact for physicists, the study of projective representations of Lie (super)algebras  are very impo...

Lie ternary $(sigma,tau,xi)$--derivations on Banach ternary algebras

Let $A$ be a Banach ternary algebra over a scalar field $Bbb R$ or $Bbb C$ and $X$ be a ternary Banach $A$--module. Let $sigma,tau$ and $xi$ be linear mappings on $A$, a linear mapping $D:(A,[~]_A)to (X,[~]_X)$ is called a Lie ternary $(sigma,tau,xi)$--derivation, if $$D([a,b,c])=[[D(a)bc]_X]_{(sigma,tau,xi)}-[[D(c)ba]_X]_{(sigma,tau,xi)}$$ for all $a,b,cin A$, where $[abc]_{(sigma,tau,xi)}=ata...

Twisted vertex representations of quantum affine algebras

Recent interests in quantum groups are stimulated by their marvelous relations with quantum Yang-Baxter equations, conformal field theory, invariants of links and knots, and q-hypergeometric series. Besides understanding the reason of the appearance of quantum groups in both mathematics and theoretical physics there is a natural problem of finding q-deformations or quantum analogues of known st...
