Constructing Graded Lie Algebras
Abstract
The Z-grading determined by a long simple root of an affine or finite type Lie algebra arises from an adjoint or cominuscule representation of a lower rank semi-simple complex Lie algebra. Analysis of the relationship between the grading and the representation leads to an extension of Kac's construction of nontwisted affine Lie algebras.
