Using completions of certain universal enveloping algebras, we provide a natural setting for families of defining relations for the principal subspaces of standard modules for untwisted affine Lie algebras. We also use the theory of vertex operator algebras and intertwining operators to construct exact sequences among principal subspaces of certain standard [Formula: see text]-modules, n ≥ 3. As a consequence, we obtain the multigraded dimensions of the principal subspaces W(k1Λ1 + k2Λ2) and W(kn-2Λn-2 + kn-1Λn-1). This generalizes earlier work by Calinescu on principal subspaces of standard [Formula: see text]-modules.

There are two physical actions that have a natural setting in terms of the coadjoint representation of the algebra of diffeomorphisms and of affine Lie algebras. One is the usual geometric action that comes from coadjoint orbits. The other action lives on the phase space that is transverse to the orbits and are called transverse actions, where Yang-Mills theory in two dimensions is an example. Here we show that the transverse action associated with the Virasoro algebra might contain clues for a theory for dark energy. These actions might also suggests a mechanism for symmetry changing.

This paper presents new generators for the center of the universal enveloping algebra of the symplectic Lie algebra. These generators are expressed in terms of the column-permanent and it is easy to calculate their eigenvalues on irreducible representations. We can regard these generators as the counterpart of central elements of the universal enveloping algebra of the orthogonal Lie algebra given in terms of the column-determinant by Wachi. The earliest prototype of all these central elements is the Capelli determinants in the universal enveloping algebra of the general linear Lie algebra.

We develop a new method for obtaining branching rules for affine Kac–Moody Lie algebras at negative integer levels. This method uses fusion rules for vertex operator algebras of affine type. We prove that an infinite family of ordinary modules for affine vertex algebra of type A investigated in our previous paper J. Algebra319 (2008) 2434–2450, is closed under fusion. Then, we apply these fusion rules on explicit bosonic realization of level -1 modules for the affine Lie algebra of type [Formula: see text], obtain a new proof of complete reducibility for these representations, and the corresponding decomposition for ℓ ≥ 3. We also obtain the complete reducibility of the associated level -1 modules for affine Lie algebra of type [Formula: see text]. Next, we notice that the category of [Formula: see text] modules at level -2ℓ + 3 has the isomorphic fusion algebra. This enables us to decompose certain [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]-modules at negative levels.

In this paper, we show that there are only seven graded Lie algebras of dimension 5 generated in degree 1 up to isomorphism. By parameterizing the relations of the universal enveloping algebras of three of those graded Lie algebras, we construct some new Artin–Schelter regular algebras of global dimension 5. We prove that those algebras are all strongly noetherian, Auslander regular and Cohen–Macaulay, and describe their Nakayama automorphisms.
