In this paper we study the Weyl groups of reduced extended affine root systems, the root systems of extended affine Lie algebras. We start by describing the extended affine Weyl group as a semidirect product of a finite Weyl group and a Heisenberg-like normal subgroup. This provides a unique express
Extended affine Weyl groups are the Weyl groups of root systems of a new class of Lie algebras called extended affine Lie algebras. In this paper we show that a Ž . reduced extended affine Weyl group is the homomorphic image of some indefinite Kac᎐Moody Weyl group where the homomorphism and its kern
