We introduce and begin to study Lie theoretical analogs of symplectic reflection algebras for a finite cyclic group, which we call "cyclic double affine Lie algebra". We focus on type A : in the finite (resp. affine, double affine) case, we prove that these structures are finite (resp. affine, toroidal) type Lie algebras, but the gradings differ. The case which is essentially new involves $\mathbb{C}[u,v]$. We describe its universal central extensions and start the study of its representation theory, in particular of its highest weight integrable modules and Weyl modules. We also consider the first Weyl algebra $A_1$ instead of the polynomial ring $\mathbb{C}[u,v]$, and, more generally, a rank one rational Cherednik algebra. We study quasi-finite highest weight representations of these Lie algebras.
We generalize I. Frenkel's orbital theory for non twisted affine Lie algebras to the case of twisted affine Lie algebras using a character formula for certain non-connected compact Lie groups.
Using the orbifold KZ connection we construct a functor from an affine parabolic category O of type A to the category O of a cyclotomic rational double affine Hecke algebra. We give several results concerning this functor.
We prove complete reducibility for an integrable module for an affine Lie algebra where the canonical central element acts non-trivially. We further prove that integrable modules does not exists for most of the super affine Lie algebras where the center acts non-trivially.
We describe Borel and parabolic subalgebras of affine Lie superalgebras and study the Verma type modules associated to such subalgebras. We give necessary and sufficient conditions under which these modules are simple.
We classify the simple integrable modules of double affine Hecke algebras via perverse sheaves. We get also some estimate for the Jordan-Holder multiplicities of induced modules.
For a twisted affine Lie superalgebra with nonzero odd part, we study {tight irreducible weight modules} with bounded weight multiplicities and show that if the action of nonzero real vectors of each affine component of the zero part is neither completely injective nor completely locally nilpotent, then these modules are parabolically induced.
We use localization technique to construct new families of irreducible modules of affine Kac-Moody algebras. In particular, localization is applied to the first free field realization of the affine Lie algebra A_1^{(1)} or, equivalently, to imaginary Verma modules.
We show that the representation theory for the toroidal extended affine Lie algebras is controlled by a vertex operator algebra which is a tensor product of four VOAs: a sub-VOA of the hyperbolic lattice VOA, two affine VOAs and a Virasoro VOA. A tensor product of irreducible modules for these VOAs admits the structure of an irreducible module for the toroidal extended affine Lie algebra. We also show that for N=12, the sub-VOA of the hyperbolic lattice VOA becomes an exceptional irreducible module for the extended affine Lie algebra of rank 0.
This is the third paper of a series (started by arXiv:0711.2083, arXiv:0908.3390) which describes a conjectural analog of the affine Grassmannian for affine Kac-Moody groups (also known as the double affine Grassmannian). The current paper is dedicated to describing a conjectural analog of the convolution diagram for the double affine Grassmannian and affine Zastava.
We study $\mathbb Z$-graded modules of nonzero level with arbitrary weight multiplicities over Heisenberg Lie algebras and the associated generalized loop modules over affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras. We construct new families of such irreducible modules over Heisenberg Lie algebras. Our main result establishes the irreducibility of the corresponding generalized loop modules providing an explicit construction of many new examples of irreducible modules for affine Lie algebras. In particular, to any function $ϕ:\mathbb N\rightarrow \{\pm\}$ we associate a $ϕ$-highest weight module over the Heisen…
In 2006, Gao and Zeng \cite{GZ} gave the free field realizations of highest weight modules over a class of extended affine Lie algebras. In the present paper, applying the technique of localization to those free field realizations, we construct a class of new weight modules over the extended affine Lie algebras. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for these modules to be irreducible. In this way, we construct free field realizations for a class of simple weight modules with infinite weight multiplicities over the extended affine Lie algebras.
We interpret and develop a theory of loop algebras as torsors (principal homogeneous spaces) over Laurent polynomial rings . As an application, we recover Kac's realization of affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras.
We introduce a new class of extended affine Lie algebras called Hamiltonian Extended Lie Algebras(HEALAs). They are so called because the corresponding derivation algebra is the classical Hamiltonian algebra. We classify the irreducible integrable modules for the HEALA based on the classification of irreducible Jet modules for the Hamiltonian algebra (both zero level and non-zero level.
In this paper, we classify the irreducible integrable modules with finite dimensional weight spaces and non-trivial $\widetilde{\mathfrak g}_c$-action for the nullity $2$ toroidal extended affine Lie algebra $\widetilde{\mathfrak g}$, where $\widetilde{\mathfrak g}_c$ is the core of $\widetilde{\mathfrak g}$.
We use induction from parabolic subalgebras with infinite-dimensional Levi factor to construct new families of irreducible representations for arbitrary Affine Kac-Moody algebra. Our first construction defines a functor from the category of Whittaker modules over the Levi factor of a parabolic subalgebra to the category of modules over the Affine Lie algebra. The second functor sends tensor products of a module over the affine part of the Levi factor (in particular any weight module) and of a Whittaker module over the complement Heisenberg subalgebra to the Affine Lie algebra modules. Both fun…
We develop general results on centroids of Lie algebras and apply them to determine the centroid of extended affine Lie algebras, loop-like and Kac-Moody Lie algebras, and Lie algebras graded by finite root systems.
We construct irreducible modules for twisted toroidal Lie algebras and extended affine Lie algebras. This is done by combining the representation theory of untwisted toroidal algebras with the technique of thin coverings of modules. We illustrate our method with examples of extended affine Lie algebras of Clifford type.
We define the i-restriction and i-induction functors on the category O of the cyclotomic rational double affine Hecke algebras. This yields a crystal on the set of isomorphism classes of simple modules, which is isomorphic to the crystal of a Fock space.
We consider one of the most natural extended affine Lie lagebras, the algebra $sl_2({\mathbb C}_q)$ and begin a theory of its representations. In particular, we study a class of imaginary Verma modules, obtain a criterion of irreducibility and describe their submodule structure in "general position".
Masures (previously also known as hovels) are a generalization of the theory of affine buildings for arbitrary $p$-adic Kac-Moody groups. Gaussent and Rousseau invented masures to compute the Satake transform for $p$-adic Kac-Moody groups. Their answer is given as a sum over Hecke paths, which are certain piecewise linear paths. Guided by their method we give a definition of double affine Kazhdan-Lusztig $R$-polynomials as a sum over piecewise linear paths that we call $I_\infty$-Hecke paths. Remarkably, the notion of $I_\infty$-Hecke path, which arises from masure theoretic considerations, is…
We propose a new simplified definition of extended affine Lie algebras (EALAs for short), and also discuss a general version of extended affine Lie algebras, called locally extended affine Lie algebras (LEALAs for short). We prove a conjecture by V. Kac for LEALAs. It turns out that the root system of a LEALA becomes a locally finite version of extended affine root systems. Finally, several examples of new EALAs and LEALAs are introduced, and we classify LEALAs of nullity 0 with connection to locally finite split simple Lie algebras.
We classify the irreducible integrable modules for the twisted toroidal extended affine Lie algebras with fnite diemnsional weight spaces where the fnite dimensional center acts trivially. We have proved that the entire central extension part acts trivially on the modules and our modules turn out to be highest weight modules.
In this article, we give a simple explicit construction of an affine slice for the coadjoint action of a certain class of biparabolic (also called seaweed) subalgebras of a semisimple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. In particular, this class includes all Borel subalgebras.
We compute the characteristic polynomials of affine Cartan, adjacency matrices and Coxeter polynomials of the associated Coxeter system using Chebyshev polynomials. We give explicit factorization of these polynomials as products of cyclotomic polynomials. Finally, we present several different methods of obtaining the exponents and Coxeter number for affine Lie algebras. In particular we compute the exponents and Coxeter number for each conjugacy class in the case of $A_n^{(1)}$.
From a certain induced representation $\mathcal{P}_\ell$ of a double affine Weyl group, we construct a ring $\mathcal{F}_\ell$ that is isomorphic to the fusion ring, or Verlinde algebra, associated to affine Lie algebras at fixed positive integer level for both twisted and untwisted type. The induced representation, which also has a natural commutative associative algebra structure and is modular invariant with respect to certain congruence subgroups, contains $\mathcal{F}_\ell$ as an ideal and we show how it naturally inherits the modular invariance property from $\mathcal{P}_\ell.$ This cons…
We give a description of the center of the affine nilTemperley-Lieb algebra based on a certain grading of the algebra and on a faithful representation of it on fermionic particle configurations. We present a normal form for monomials, hence construct a basis of the algebra, and use this basis to show that the affine nilTemperley-Lieb algebra is finitely generated over its center. As an application, we obtain a natural embedding of the affine nilTemperley-Lieb algebra on N generators into the affine nilTemperley-Lieb algebra on N + 1 generators.
We reprove the results of Jordan [18] and Siebert [31] and show that the Lie algebra of polynomial vector fields on an irreducible affine variety X is simple if and only if X is a smooth variety. Given proof is self-contained and does not depend on papers mentioned above. Besides, the structure of the module of polynomial functions on an irreducible smooth affine variety over the Lie algebra of vector fields is studied. Examples of Lie algebras of polynomial vector fields on an N-dimensional sphere, non-singular hyperelliptic curves and linear algebraic groups are considered.
We describe the category of integrable sl(1|n)^ -modules with the positive central charge and show that the irreducible modules provide the full set of irreducible representations for the corresponding simple vertex algebra.
C.M. Ringel defined Hall algebra associated with the category of representations of a quiver of Dynkin type and gave an explicit description of the structure constants of the corresponding Lie algebra. We utilize functorial properties of the Hall algebra to give a simple proof of Ringel's result, and to generalize it to the case of a quiver of affine type.
For a smooth irreducible affine algebraic variety we study a class of gauge modules admitting compatible actions of both the algebra $A$ of functions and the Lie algebra $\mathcal{V}$ of vector fields on the variety. We prove that a gauge module corresponding to a simple $\mathfrak{gl}_N$-module is irreducible as a module over the Lie algebra of vector fields unless it appears in the de Rham complex.
In this paper, we characterize quasi-integrable modules, of nonzero level, over twisted affine Lie superalgebras. We show that quasi-integrable modules are not necessarily highest weight modules. We prove that each quasi-integrable module is parabolically induced from a cuspidal module, over a finite dimensional Lie superalgebra having a Cartan subalgebra whose corresponding root system just contain real roots; in particular, the classification of quasi-integrable modules is reduced to the known classification of cuspidal modules over such Lie superalgebras.
Let $\fg$ be any untwisted affine Kac-Moody algebra, $μ$ any fixed complex number, and $\wt\fg(μ)$ the corresponding toroidal extended affine Lie algebra of nullity two. For any $k$-tuple $\bmλ=(λ_1, \cdots, λ_k)$ of weights of $\fg$, and $k$-tuple $\bm{a}=(a_1,\cdots, a_k)$ of distinct non-zero complex numbers, we construct a class of modules $\wt V(\bmλ,\bm{a})$ for the extended affine Lie algebra $\wt\fg(μ)$. We prove that the $\wt\fg(μ)$-module $\wt V(\bmλ,\bm{a})$ is completely reducible. We also prove that the $\wt\fg(μ)$-module $\wt V(\bmλ,\bm{a})$ is integrable when all weights $λ_i$ i…
This is the second paper of a series (started by arXiv:0711.2083) which describes a conjectural analog of the affine Grassmannian for affine Kac-Moody groups (also known as the double affine Grassmannian). The current paper is dedicated to describing a conjectural analog of the convolution diagram for the double affine Grassmannian. In the case when G=SL(n) our conjectures can be derived from arXiv:0809.2605.
We prove that any real Lie group of dimension \leq 5 admits a left invariant flat projective structure. We also prove that a real Lie group L of dimension \leq 5 admits a left invariant flat affine structure if and only if the Lie algebra of L is not perfect.
We construct the finite dimensional simple integral modules for the (degenerate) affine Hecke-Clifford algebra (AHCA). Our construction includes an analogue of Zelevinsky's segment representations, a complete combinatorial description of the simple calibrated modules, and a classification of the simple integral modules. Additionally, we construct an analogue of the Arakawa-Suzuki functor for the Lie superalgebra of type Q.
We describe the structure of a Verma module with a generic highest weight at the critical level over a symmetrizable affine Lie superalgebra not of the type A(2k,2l)^{(4)}. We obtain the character formula for a simple module with a generic highest weight at the critical level conjectured by V. G. Kac and D. A. Kazhdan.
We study the finite-dimensional simple modules, over an algebraically closed field, of the affine Temperley--Lieb algebra corresponding to the affine Weyl group of type $A$. These turn out to be closely related to the simple modules for a certain $q$-analogue of the annular algebra of V.F.R. Jones.
We construct a new family of irreducible modules over any basic classical affine Kac-Moody Lie superalgebra which are induced from modules over the Heisenberg subalgebra. We also obtain irreducible deformations of these modules for the quantum affine superalgebra of type A.
We present modules for the extended affine Lie algebra $\widetilde{\frak{gl}_{3}(\bc_q)}$ by using the idea of free fields. A necessary and sufficient condition for the modules being unitary is given.
Imaginary Verma modules, parabolic imaginary Verma modules, and Verma modules at level zero for double affine Lie algebras are constructed using three different triangular decompositions. Their relations are investigated, and several results are generalized from the affine Lie algebras. In particular, imaginary highest weight modules, integrable modules, and irreducibility criterion are also studied.
The study of denominator identities for Lie superalgebras was recently developed by M. Gorelik, V.G. Kac, P.Moseneder Frajria, I. Musson, P. Papi, M. Wakimoto and the author. In this paper we generalize these identities to the twisted affine case, completing the result to all affine Lie superalgebras.
Locally affine Lie algebras are generalizations of affine Kac--Moody algebras with Cartan subalgebras of infinite rank whose root system is locally affine. In this note we study a class of representations of locally affine algebras generalizing integrable highest weight modules. In particular, we construct such an integrable representation for each integral weight not vanishing on the center and show that, over the complex numbers, we thus obtain unitary representations w.r.t. a unitary real form. We also use Yoshii's recent classification of locally affine root systems to derive a classificat…
An important theorem in the theory of infinite dimensional Lie algebras states that any affine Kac-Moody algebra can be realized (that is to say constructed explicitly) using loop algebras. In this paper, we consider the corresponding problem for a class of Lie algebras called extended affine Lie algebras (EALAs) that generalize affine algebras. EALAs occur in families that are constructed from centreless Lie tori, so the realization problem for EALAs reduces to the realization problem for centreless Lie tori. We show that all but one family of centreless Lie tori can be realized using multilo…
We study some non-semisimple representations of affine Temperley--Lieb algebras and related cellular algebras. In particular, we classify extensions between simple standard modules. Moreover, we construct a completion which is an infinite dimensional cellular algebra.
We construct a class of modules for extended affine Lie algebra $\widetilde{\frak{gl}_l({\bc_q})}$ by using the free fields. A necessary and sufficient condition is given for those modules being irreducible.
In this paper we present Affine.m - program for computations in representation theory of finite-dimensional and affine Lie algebras and describe implemented algorithms. Algorithms are based upon the properties of weights and Weyl symmetry. The most important problems for us are the ones, concerning computation of weight multiplicities in irreducible and Verma modules, branching of representations and tensor product decomposition. These problems have numerous applications in physics and we provide some examples of these applications. The program is implemented in popular computer algebra system…
We shall derive Kazhdan-Lusztig type character formula for the irreducible modules with arbitrary non-critical highest weights over affine Lie algebras from the rational case by using the translation functor, the Enright functor and Jantzen's deformation argument.
