Complete classifications of generalized kac-moody algebras possessing special imaginary roots and strictly imaginary property

摘要

In this article, we consider all generalized Kac-Moody algebras (GKM algebras) for the purpose of finding out special imaginary roots and strictly imaginary roots. We give a complete classification of GKM algebras possessing special imaginary roots and also give a complete classification of GKM algebras possessing strictly imaginary property (GKM algebras whose imaginary roots are strictly imaginary). We also conclude that the Monster Lie algebra has no special imaginary root and does not satisfy strictly imaginary property.
