Superimposed D-branes have matrix-valued functions as their transverse coordinates, since the latter take values in the Lie algebra of the gauge group inside the stack of coincident branes. This leads to considering a classical dynamics where the multiplication law for coordinates and/or momenta, being given by matrix multiplication, is non-Abelian. Quantization further introduces noncommutativity as a deformation in powers of Planck's constant ℏ. Given an arbitrary simple Lie algebra [Formula: see text] and an arbitrary Poisson manifold ℳ, both finite-dimensional, we define a corresponding C⋆-algebra that can be regarded as a non-Abelian Poisson manifold. The latter provides a natural framework for a matrix-valued classical dynamics.

Let L be a finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra, Lℤ be the ℤ-span of a Chevalley basis of L and LR = R⊗ℤLℤ be a Chevalley algebra of type L over a commutative ring R. Let [Formula: see text] be the nilpotent subalgebra of LR spanned by the root vectors associated with positive roots. The aim of this paper is to determine the automorphism group of [Formula: see text].

We investigate the representations of the hyperalgebras associated to the map algebras [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is any finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra and [Formula: see text] is any associative commutative unitary algebra with a multiplicatively closed basis. We consider the natural definition of the local and global Weyl modules, and the Weyl functor for these algebras. Under certain conditions, we prove that these modules satisfy certain universal properties, and we also give conditions for the local or global Weyl modules to be finite-dimensional or finitely generated, respectively.

AbstractA Hom-structure on a Lie algebra (g,[,]) is a linear map σ W g σ g which satisfies the Hom-Jacobi identity: [σ(x), [y,z]] + [σ(y), [z,x]] + [σ(z),[x,y]] = 0 for all x; y; z ∈ g. A Hom-structure is referred to as multiplicative if it is also a Lie algebra homomorphism. This paper aims to determine explicitly all the Homstructures on the finite-dimensional semi-simple Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. As a Hom-structure on a Lie algebra is not necessarily a Lie algebra homomorphism, the method developed for multiplicative Hom-structures by Jin and Li in [J. Algebra 319 (2008): 1398–1408] does not work again in our case. The critical technique used in this paper, which is completely different from that in [J. Algebra 319 (2008): 1398– 1408], is that we characterize the Hom-structures on a semi-simple Lie algebra g by introducing certain reduction methods and using the software GAP. The results not only improve the earlier ones in [J. Algebra 319 (2008): 1398– 1408], but also correct an error in the conclusion for the 3-dimensional simple Lie algebra sl2. In particular, we find an interesting fact that all the Hom-structures on sl2 constitute a 6-dimensional Jordan algebra in the usual way.

AbstractLet be a (not necessarily simply laced) finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra with the Cartan subalgebra and Q ⊂ * the root lattice. Denote by ΘQ(q) the theta series of the root lattice Q of . We prove a curious “combinatorial” identity for the derivative of ΘQ(q), i.e. for by using the representation theory of an affine Lie algebra.

In [6] we have constructed certain normal subgroups G7 of the elementary subgroup GR of the Chevalley group G(L, R) over R corresponding to a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra L over the complex field, where R is a commutative ring with identity. The method employed was to augment somewhat the generators of the elementary subgroup EI of G corresponding to an ideal I of the underlying Chevalley algebra LR;EI is thus the group generated by all xr(t) in G having the property that ter ⊂ I. In [6, § 5] we noted that in general EI actually had to be enlarged for a normal subgroup of GR to be obtained.

In this paper, we investigate a conjecture of Dixmier [2] on the structure of basic cycles. Our interest in basic cycles arises primarily from the fact that the irreducible modules of a simple Lie algebra L having a weight space decomposition are completely determined by the irreducible modules of the cycle subalgebra of L. The basic cycles form a generating set for the cycle subalgebra.First some notation: F denotes an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, L a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra of rank n over F, H a fixed Cartan subalgebra, U(L) the universal enveloping algebra of L, C(L) the centralizer of H in U(L), Φ the set of nonzero roots in H*, the dual space of H, Δ = {α1, …, αn} a base of Φ, and Φ+ = {β1, …, βm} the positive roots corresponding to Δ.

We prove that the singularities of the [Formula: see text]-matrix [Formula: see text] of the minimal quantization of the adjoint representation of the Yangian [Formula: see text] of a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra [Formula: see text] are the opposite of the roots of the monic polynomial [Formula: see text] entering in the OPE expansions of quantum fields of conformal weight [Formula: see text] of the universal minimal affine [Formula: see text]-algebra at level [Formula: see text] attached to [Formula: see text].

A well-known Peterson's theorem says that the number of abelian ideals in a Borel subalgebra of a rank-r finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra is exactly 2r. In this paper, we determine the dimensional distribution of abelian ideals in a Borel subalgebra of finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras, which is a refinement of Peterson's theorem capturing more Lie algebra invariants.

In Bennett et al. [BGG reciprocity for current algebras, Adv. Math. 231 (2012), 276–305] it was conjectured that a BGG-type reciprocity holds for the category of graded representations with finite-dimensional graded components for the current algebra associated to a simple Lie algebra. We associate a current algebra to any indecomposable affine Lie algebra and show that, in this generality, the BGG reciprocity is true for the corresponding category of representations.
