Fractional Supersymmetry and Infinite Dimensional Lie Algebras

Abstract

In an earlier work extensions of supersymmetry and super Lie algebras were constructed consistently starting from any representation $\D$ of any Lie algebra $\g$. Here it is shown how infinite dimensional Lie algebras appear naturally within the framework of fractional supersymmetry. Using a differential realization of $\g$ this infinite dimensional Lie algebra, containing the Lie algebra $\g$ as a sub-algebra, is explicitly constructed.
