✦ Synopsis


Lie algebras have many varied applications, both in mathematics and mathematical physics. This book provides a thorough but relaxed mathematical treatment of the subject, including both the Cartan-Killing-Weyl theory of finite dimensional simple algebras and the more modern theory of Kac-Moody algebras. Proofs are given in detail and the only prerequisite is a sound knowledge of linear algebra. The Appendix provides a summary of the basic properties of each Lie algebra of finite and affine type.

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
