A Combinatorial Construction for Simply–laced Lie Algebras
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper shows how to uniformly associate Lie algebras to the simply-laced Dynkin diagrams excluding E8 by constructing explicit combinatorial models of minuscule representations using only graph-theoretic ideas. This involves defining raising and lowering operators in a space of ideals of certain distributive lattices associated to sequences of vertices of the Dynkin diagram.

Free Field Realization of WBC n and WG 2 algebras
We study the BRST-cohomology in the quantum hamiltonian reduction of affine Lie algebras of non-simply laced type. We obtain the free field realization of the Wg-algebra for g = B2, B3, C3 and G2. The WC3 algebra is shown to be equal to the WB3 algebra at the quantum level by duality transformation. W -algebra symmetry [1, 2] plays an important role in the classification of rational conformal f...
متن کاملConstructing Simply Laced Lie Algebras from Extremal Elements
For any finite graph Γ and any field K of characteristic unequal to 2 we construct an algebraic variety X over K whose K-points parameterise K-Lie algebras generated by extremal elements, corresponding to the vertices of the graph, with prescribed commutation relations, corresponding to the non-edges. After that, we study the case where Γ is a connected, simply laced Dynkin diagram of finite or...
متن کاملThe Classification of the Simply Laced Berger Graphs from Calabi-Yau CY3 spaces
The algebraic approach to the construction of the reflexive polyhedra that yield Calabi-Yau spaces in three or more complex dimensions with K3 fibres reveals graphs that include and generalize the Dynkin diagrams associated with gauge symmetries. In this work we continue to study the structure of graphs obtained from CY3 reflexive polyhedra. The objective is to describe the “simply laced” cases...
متن کاملColours associated to non simply-laced Lie algebras and exact S-matrices
A new set of exact scattering matrices in 1+1 dimensions is proposed by solving the bootstrap equations. Extending earlier constructions of colour valued scattering matrices this new set has its colour structure associated to non simply-laced Lie algebras. This in particular leads to a coupling of different affine Toda models whose fusing structure has to be matched in a suitable manner. The de...
