Abstract

Borel subalgebras play a prominent role in the representation theory of finite-dimensional Lie algebras and superalgebras, as well as of Kac–Moody algebras, since Borel subalgebras are responsible for the very existence of highest weight modules. In this chapter we introduce the special class of splitting Borel subalgebras, and show that their stabilizers are generalized flags.
