In this paper, we study the representations of loop Affine-Virasoro algebras. As they have canonical triangular decomposition, we define Verma modules and their irreducible quotients. We give necessary and sufficient condition for a irreducible highest weight module to have finite dimensional weight spaces. We prove that an irreducible integrable module is either a highest weight module or a lowest weight module whenever the canonical central element acts non-trivially. At the end, we construct Affine central operators for each integer and they commute with the action of the Affine Lie algebra.

Let [Formula: see text] be an untwisted affine Kac–Moody Lie algebra. The top of every irreducible highest weight integrable [Formula: see text]-module is the finite-dimensional irreducible [Formula: see text]-module, where the action of the simple Lie algebra [Formula: see text] is given by zeroth products arising from the underlying vertex operator algebra theory. Motivated by this fact, we consider zeroth products of level [Formula: see text] Frenkel–Jing operators corresponding to Drinfeld realization of the quantum affine algebra [Formula: see text]. By applying these products, which originate from the quantum vertex algebra theory developed by Li, on the extension of Koyama vertex operator [Formula: see text], we obtain an infinite-dimensional vector space [Formula: see text]. Next, we introduce an associative algebra [Formula: see text], a certain quantum analogue of the universal enveloping algebra [Formula: see text], and construct some infinite-dimensional [Formula: see text]-modules [Formula: see text] corresponding to the finite-dimensional irreducible [Formula: see text]-modules [Formula: see text]. We show that the space [Formula: see text] carries a structure of an [Formula: see text]-module and, furthermore, we prove that the [Formula: see text]-module [Formula: see text] is isomorphic to the [Formula: see text]-module [Formula: see text].

AbstractLet G be a finite group, let k be a field and let R be a finite dimensional fully G-graded k-algebra. Also let L be a completely reducible R-module and let P be a projective cover of R. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for P|R1 to be a projective cover of L|R1 in Mod (R1). In particular, this happens if and only if L is R1-projective. Some consequences in finite group representation theory are deduced.

In this paper we show that there exist exactly two nonequivalent simple infinite dimensional highest weight Cn modules having the property that every weight space is one dimensional. The tensor products of these modules with any finite-dimensional simple Cn module are proven to be completely reducible and we provide an explicit decomposition for such tensor products. As an application of these decompositions, we obtain two recursion formulas for computing the multiplicities of simple finite dimensional Cn modules. These formulas involve a sum over subgroups of index 2 in the Weyl group of Cn.

Let U be the quantized enveloping algebra associated to a simple Lie algebra g by Drinfel'd and Jimbo. Let λ be a classical fundamental weight for g, and ⋯(λ) the irreducible, finite-dimensional type 1 highest weight U-module with highest weight λ. We show that the canonical basis for ⋯(λ) (see Kashiwara [6, §0] and Lusztig [18, 14.4.12]) and the standard monomial basis (see [11, §§2.4 and 2.5]) for ⋯(λ) coincide.

Let L denote a finite dimensional, simple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic zero. It is well known that every weight space of an irreducible representation (ρ, V) admitting a highest weight function is finite dimensional. In a previous paper [2], we have established the existence of a wide class of irreducible representations which admit a one-dimensional weight space but no highest weight function. In this paper we show that the weight spaces of all such representations are finite dimensional.

A theory of highest weight modules over an arbitrary finite-dimensional Lie superalgebra is constructed. A necessary and sufficient condition for the finite-dimensionality of such modules is proved. Generic finite-dimensional irreducible representations are defined and an explicit character formula for such representations is written down. It is conjectured that this formula applies to any generic finite-dimensional irreducible module over any finite-dimensional Lie superalgebra. The conjecture is proved for several classes of Lie superalgebras, in particular for all solvable ones, for all simple ones, and for certain semi-simple ones.

An explicit character formula is established for any strongly generic finite-dimensional irreducible [Formula: see text]-module, [Formula: see text] being an arbitrary finite-dimensional complex Lie superalgebra. This character formula had been conjectured earlier by Vera Serganova and the author for any generic irreducible finite-dimensional [Formula: see text]-module, i.e. such that its highest weight is far enough from the walls of the Weyl chambers. The condition of strong genericity, under which the conjecture is proved in this paper, is slightly stronger than genericity, but if in particular no simple component of [Formula: see text] is isomorphic to psq(n) for n ≥ 3 or to H(2k + 1) for k ≥ 2, strong genericity is equivalent to genericity.

This paper classifies irreducible, integrable highest weight modules for “current Kac–Moody Algebras” with finite-dimensional weight spaces. We prove that these modules turn out to be modules of appropriate direct sums of finitely many copies of Kac–Moody Lie algebras.

AbstractSimple, or Kleinian, singularities are classified by Dynkin diagrams of type $ADE$. Let $\mathfrak {g}$ be the corresponding finite-dimensional Lie algebra, and $W$ its Weyl group. The set of $\mathfrak {g}$-invariants in the basic representation of the affine Kac–Moody algebra $\hat {\mathfrak {g}}$ is known as a $\mathcal {W}$-algebra and is a subalgebra of the Heisenberg vertex algebra $\mathcal {F}$. Using period integrals, we construct an analytic continuation of the twisted representation of $\mathcal {F}$. Our construction yields a global object, which may be called a $W$-twisted representation of $\mathcal {F}$. Our main result is that the total descendant potential of the singularity, introduced by Givental, is a highest-weight vector for the $\mathcal {W}$-algebra.
