One of the main tools to achieve this is a generalization of Chevalley automorphisms in the context of extended affine Lie algebras. As an application, groups of extended affine Lie type associated to the adjoint representation are defined over arbitrary fields.

We follow a unified approach for the types under consideration.

We show that these abstractly defined root systems are the root systems of a class of Lie algebras which are axiomatically defined and are closely related to the class of extended affine Lie algebras.

Finite presentations for extended affine Weyl groups are known only for nullities $\leq 2$, where for nullity 2 there is only one known such presentation. We give a finite presentation for the class of simply laced extended affine Weyl groups. Our presentation is nullity free if rank $>1$ and for rank 1 it is given for nullities $\leq 3$. The generators and relations are given uniformly for all types, and for a given nullity they can be read from the corresponding finite Cartan matrix and the semilattice involved in the structure of the root system.

These Lie (super)algebras have been mostly studied under variations of the name “extended affine Lie (super)algebras”. We show that certain classes of Malcev (super)algebras also can be put in this framework. This in particular allows us to provide new examples of Malcev (super)algebras which extend the known Kac–Moody Malcev (super)algebras.

We present a positivity theory which decomposes in a natural way the nonisotropic roots into positive and negative roots, then using that, we give an extended version of the well-known exchange condition for the corresponding Weyl group, and finally give an extended version of the Bruhat ordering and the [Formula: see text]-Lemma. Furthermore, a new presentation of the Weyl group in terms of the parity permutations is given, this in turn leads to a parity theorem which gives a characterization of the reduced words in the Weyl group. All root systems involved in this work appear as the root systems of certain well-studied Lie algebras.

We provide a framework similar to the one for extended affine Lie algebras by “direct unions.” Our approach suggests that the direct union of existing realizations of extended affine Lie algebras, in a rigorous mathematical sense, would lead to a complete realization of locally extended affine Lie algebras, in the level of core modulo center. As an application of our results, we realize centerless cores of locally extended affine Lie algebras with specific root systems of types A1, B, C, and BC.

This class includes finite dimensional basic classical simple Lie superalgebras and affine Lie superalgebras. In this paper, an affinization process is introduced for the class of extended affine Lie superalgebras, and the necessary conditions for an extended affine Lie superalgebra to be invariant under this process are presented. Moreover, new extended affine Lie superalgebras are constructed by means of the affinization process.

We introduce a notion of root basis for these root systems, and using a unique expression of the elements of the Weyl group with respect to a set of generators for the Weyl group, we calculate the length function with respect to a very specific root basis.
