Indecomposable parabolic bundles

William Crawley-Boevey (2004)

Publications Mathématiques de l'IHÉS

We study the possible dimension vectors of indecomposable parabolic bundles on the projective line, and use our answer to solve the problem of characterizing those collections of conjugacy classes of n×n matrices for which one can find matrices in their closures whose product is equal to the identity matrix. Both answers depend on the root system of a Kac-Moody Lie algebra. Our proofs use Ringel’s theory of tubular algebras, work of Mihai on the existence of logarithmic connections, the Riemann-Hilbert...

Kac-Moody groups, hovels and Littelmann paths

Stéphane Gaussent, Guy Rousseau (2008)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We give the definition of a kind of building for a symmetrizable Kac-Moody group over a field K endowed with a discrete valuation and with a residue field containing . Due to the lack of some important property of buildings, we call it a hovel. Nevertheless, some good ones remain, for example, the existence of retractions with center a sector-germ. This enables us to generalize many results proved in the semisimple case by S. Gaussent and P. Littelmann. In particular, if K = ( ( t ) ) , the geodesic segments...

Miura opers and critical points of master functions

Evgeny Mukhin, Alexander Varchenko (2005)

Open Mathematics

Critical points of a master function associated to a simple Lie algebra 𝔤 come in families called the populations [11]. We prove that a population is isomorphic to the flag variety of the Langlands dual Lie algebra t 𝔤 . The proof is based on the correspondence between critical points and differential operators called the Miura opers. For a Miura oper D, associated with a critical point of a population, we show that all solutions of the differential equation DY=0 can be written explicitly in terms...

Multiloop algebras, iterated loop algebras and extended affine Lie algebras of nullity 2

Bruce Allison, Stephen Berman, Arturo Pianzola (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Let 𝕄 n be the class of all multiloop algebras of finite dimensional simple Lie algebras relative to n -tuples of commuting finite order automorphisms. It is a classical result that 𝕄 1 is the class of all derived algebras modulo their centres of affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras. This combined with the Peterson-Kac conjugacy theorem for affine algebras results in a classification of the algebras in 𝕄 1 . In this paper, we classify the algebras in 𝕄 2 , and further determine the relationship between 𝕄 2 and two...
