Description
This volume consists of expository and research articles that highlight the various Lie algebraic methods used in mathematical research today. Key topics discussed include spherical varieties, Littelmann Paths and Kac-Moody Lie algebras, modular representations, primitive ideals, representation theory of Artin algebras and quivers, Kac-Moody superalgebras, categories of Harish-Chandra modules, cohomological methods, and cluster algebras.
