The recently constructed Fock representations of $N$-dimensional diffeomorphism and current algebras are reformulated in terms of one-dimensional currents, satisfying Virasoro and affine Kac-Moody algebras.
The main purpose of this work is to review the results obtained recently concerning the unitarization of highest weight representations for affine Kac-Moody algebras following the work of Jakobsen and Kac.
In this paper we study Lie symmetries, Kac-Moody-Virasoro algebras, similarity reductions and particular solutions of two different recently introduced (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equations, namely (i) (2+1)-dimensional breaking soliton equation and (ii) (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger type equation introduced by Zakharov and studied later by Strachan. Interestingly our studies show that not all integrable higher dimensional systems admit Kac-Moody-Virasoro type sub-algebras. Particularly the two integrable systems mentioned above do not admit Virasoro type subalgebras, event…
We present a classification of the hyperbolic Kac-Moody (HKM) superalgebras. The HKM superalgebras of rank larger or equal than 3 are finite in number (213) and limited in rank (6). The Dynkin-Kac diagrams and the corresponding simple root systems are determined. We also discuss a class of singular sub(super)algebras obtained by a folding procedure.
In this paper we have computed all the affine Kac-Moody symmetric spaces which are tame Frechet manifolds starting from the Vogan diagrams related to the affine untwisted Kac-Moody algebras. The detail computation of affine Kac-Moody symmetric spaces associated with A_1^(1) and A_2^(1) are shown algebraically to corroborate our method.
In a recent paper ([1],[2]) we have classified explicitely all the unitary highest weight representations of non compact real forms of semisimple Lie Algebras on Hermitian symmetric space. These results are necessary in order to construct all the unitary highest weight representations of affine Kac-Moody Algebras following some theorems proved by Jakobsen and Kac ([3],[4]).
We show that the rank 10 hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebra $E_{10}$ contains every simply laced hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebra as a Lie subalgebra. Our method is based on an extension of earlier work of Feingold and Nicolai.
An eighth-order equation in (3+1)-dimension is studied for its integrability. Its symmetry group is shown to be infinite-dimensional and is checked for Virasoro like structure. The equation is shown not to have Painlev$\acute{\rm e}$ property. One and two-dimensional classifications of infinite-dimensional symmetry algebra is also given.
Since the work of Henri Cartan finite dimensional Riemannian symmetric spaces are an important subject of mathematical interest. They are related in a natural way to semisimple Lie groups. In this work we introduce and study their infinite dimensional generalization: Affine Kac-Moody symmetric spaces. Affine Kac-Moody symmetric spaces are infinite dimensional symmetric spaces associated to affine Kac-Moody groups. They have the structure of tame Fréchet manifolds; the natural Ad-invariant scalar product on affine Kac-Moody algebras is Lorentzian, making affine Kac-Moody symmetric spaces into L…
We classify regular subalgebras of affine Kac-Moody algebras in terms of their root systems. In the process, we establish that a root system of a subalgebra is always an intersection of the root system of the algebra with a sublattice of its root lattice. We also discuss applications to investigations of regular subalgebras of hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebras and conformally invariant subalgebras of affine Kac-Moody algebras.
We discuss the higher dimensional generalizations of the Virasoro and Affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras. We present an explicit construction for a central extensions of the Lie Algebra $Map (X, \g)$ where $\g$ is a finite-dimensional Lie algebra and $X$ is a complex manifold that can be described as a "right" higher-dimensional generalization of $C^*$ from the point of view of a corresponding group action. The constructed algebras have most of the good properties of finite dimensional semi-simple Lie algebras and are a new class of generalized Kac-Moody algebras. These algebras have description in…
We consider the XXX Bethe equation associated with integral dominant weights of a Kac-Moody algebra and introduce a generating procedure constructing new solutions starting from a given one. The family of all solutions constructed from a given one is called a population. We describe properties of populations.
We investigate a class of Kac-Moody algebras previously not considered. We refer to them as n-extended Lorentzian Kac-Moody algebras defined by their Dynkin diagrams through the connection of an $A_n$ Dynkin diagram to the node corresponding to the affine root. The cases $n=1$ and $n=2$ correspond to the well studied over and very extended Kac-Moody algebras, respectively, of which the particular examples of $E_{10}$ and $E_{11}$ play a prominent role in string and M-theory. We construct closed generic expressions for their associated roots, fundamental weights and Weyl vectors. We use these q…
For a diagram automorphism of an affine Kac-Moody algebra such that the folded diagram is still an affine Dynkin diagram, we show that the associated Drinfeld-Sokolov hierarchy also admits an induced automorphism. Then we show how to obtain the Drinfeld-Sokolov hierarchy associated to the affine Kac-Moody algebra that corresponds to the folded Dynkin diagram from the invariant sub-hierarchy of the original Drinfeld-Sokolov hierarchy.
In this paper we study automorphic correction of the hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebra $E_{10}$, using the Borcherds product for O(10,2) attached to a weakly holomorphic modular form of weight -4 for $SL_2(\mathbb Z)$. We also clarify some aspects of automorphic correction for Lorentzian Kac-Moody algebras and give heuristic reasons for the expectation that every Lorentzian Kac-Moody algebra has an automorphic correction.
We investigate regular hyperbolic subalgebras of hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebras via their Weyl groups. We classify all subgroups relations between Weyl groups of hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebras, and show that for every pair of a group and subgroup their exists at least one corresponding pair of algebra and subalgebra. We also present a finite algorithm classifying all regular hyperbolic subalgebras of hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebras.
We study spin structures on affine Kac-Moody symmetric spaces and obtain sufficient conditions for their existence.\ As a by product of this, we obtain a spin-c representation of certain Kac-Moody quadratic subgroups of type E.
In this paper we discuss two items which in one way or another originated from conversations with Hermann Flaschka and his students. The first is an application of the Toda lattice to the question of whether there exists a complex Lie group (with certain properties) associated to an indefinite type Kac-Moody Lie algebra. The second concerns a new example of the Verblunsky correspondence.
We introduce a quantum model for the Universe at its early stages, formulating a mechanism for the expansion of space and matter from a quantum initial condition, with particle interactions and creation driven by algebraic extensions of the Kac-Moody Lie algebra $\mathbf{e_9}$. We investigate Kac-Moody and Borcherds algebras, and we propose a generalization that meets further requirements that we regard as fundamental in quantum gravity.
We introduce a higher dimensional generalization of the affine Kac-Moody algebra using the language of factorization algebras. In particular, on any complex manifold there is a factorization algebra of "currents" associated to any Lie algebra. We classify local cocycles of these current algebras, and compare them to central extensions of higher affine algebras recently proposed by Faonte-Hennion-Kapranov. A central goal of this paper is to witness higher Kac-Moody algebras as symmetries of a class of holomorphic quantum field theories. In particular, we prove a generalization of the free field…
The goal of the present paper is to obtain new free field realizations of affine Kac-Moody algebras motivated by geometric representation theory for generalized flag manifolds of finite-dimensional semisimple Lie groups. We provide an explicit construction of a large class of irreducible modules associated with certain parabolic subalgebras covering all known special cases.
