✦ Synopsis


This is the first of what will be a sequence of three papers dealing with a generalization of certain parts of the beautiful work of V. Kac on finiteorder automorphisms of finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebras. Recall that Kac (see [K2, Chap. 8] and [H, Sect. X.5]) built a Lie algebra from a pair ( σ) composed of a finite-order automorphism σ of a finitedimensional simple Lie algebra over as follows. First from σ he obtains the eigenspaces ī = x ∈ σ x = ζ i x where m is on the order of σ, ζ = e 2πi √ -1/m i ∈ , and i → ī is the natural map of → m (here m denotes the integers modulo m).

The cores of extended affine Lie algebras of reduced types were classified except for type A 1 . In this paper we determine the coordinate algebra of extended affine Lie algebras of type A 1 . It turns out that such an algebra is a unital n -graded Jordan algebra of a certain type, called a Jordan t

We study, in the path realization, crystals for Demazure modules of affine Lie algebras of types A Ž1. , B Ž1. , C Ž1. , D Ž1. , A Ž2. , A Ž2. , and D Ž2. . We find a special sequence of affine Weyl group elements for the selected perfect crystal, and show that if the highest weight is l⌳ , the Dem

The theory of Vogan diagrams, which are Dynkin diagrams with an overlay of certain additional information, allows one to give a rapid classification of finitedimensional real semisimple Lie algebras and to make use of this classification in practice. This paper develops a corresponding theory of Vog
