Research Abstract |
The existence of strong Gauss decompositions for general Kac-Moody groups has been proved. In the case of finite dimensional semisimple algebraic groups such a result was given before by V. Chernousov etc. In the infinite dimensional case, several ,new properties as well,as strong Gauss decompositions have been established. More explicitely, we let G = a Kac-Moody group, Z(G) = the center of G, T = the standard maximal torus, U = the standard maximal upper triangular unipotent subgroup, V = the standard maximal lower triangular unipotent subgroup. Then the following has been shown to be-true for every h[0x81b8(Shift-JIS)]T : G=Z(G)[0x81be(Shift-JIS)][0x81be(Shift-JIS)]__<g[0x81b8(Shift-JIS)]G>g(VhU)g^<-1>. Furthermore, using this, it has been proved that every noncentral element is able to be expressed as a product of two unipotent elements, which is a very strong result to study the group structure of a Kac-Moody group. As related topics, positive cones and semigroups have been discussed, and Matsumoto type presentations have been given for certain K-seniigroups. Also, some quasi-periodic structures have been studied as applications of algebraic group theory and algebraic number theory.
