Title: Generators and relations for quantum loop groups
Abstract:
I will present new constructions of several of the exceptional simple Lie super- algebras with integer Cartan matrix in characteristic p = 3 and p = 5, which were classified in [1]. These include the Elduque and Cunha Lie superalgebras. Specifically, let $\alpha_{p}$ denote the kernel of the Frobenius endomorphism on the additive group scheme $\mathbb{G}_{a}$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. The Verlinde category Verp is the semisimplification of the representation category Rep αp, and Verp contains the category of super vector spaces as a full subcategory. Each exceptional Lie superalgebra we construct is realized as the image of an exceptional Lie algebra equipped with a nilpotent derivation of order at most p under the semisimplification functor from Rep $\alpha_{p}$ to $Ver_{p}$. The content of this talk can primarily be found in [2] and [3].
