Semi-simple Lie Algebras and Their Representations

Universal Central Extension of Current Superalgebras

Representation as well as central extension are two of the most important concepts in the theory of Lie (super)algebras. Apart from the interest of mathematicians, the attention of physicist are also drawn to these two subjects because of the significant amount of their applications in Physics. In fact for physicists, the study of projective representations of Lie (super)algebras  are very impo...

Monomial Irreducible sln-Modules

In this article, we introduce monomial irreducible representations of the special linear Lie algebra $sln$. We will show that this kind of representations have bases for which the action of the Chevalley generators of the Lie algebra on the basis elements can be given by a simple formula.

Arithmetic Deformation Theory of Lie Algebras

This paper is devoted to deformation theory of graded Lie algebras over Z or Zl with finite dimensional graded pieces. Such deformation problems naturally appear in number theory. In the first part of the paper, we use Schlessinger criteria for functors on Artinian local rings in order to obtain universal deformation rings for deformations of graded Lie algebras and their graded representations...
