In mathematics, a KacâMoody algebra (named for Victor Kac and Robert Moody, who independently and simultaneously discovered them in 1968[1]) is a Lie algebra, usually infinite-dimensional, that can be defined by generators and relations through a generalized Cartan matrix. These algebras form a generalization of finite-dimensional semisimple Lie algebras, and many properties related to the structu
