A multidimensional gravitational model containing scalar fields and antisymmetric forms is considered. The manifold is chosen in the form $M = M_0 times M_1 times cdots times M_n$, where $M_i$ are Einstein spaces ($i geq 1$). The sigma-model approach and exact solutions with intersecting composite branes (e.g. solutions with harmonic functions, $S$-brane and black brane ones) with intersection rules related to non-singular Kac-Moody (KM) algebras (e.g. hyperbolic ones) are reviewed. Some examples of solutions, e.g. corresponding to hyperbolic KM algebras: $H_2(q,q)$, $AE_3$, $HA_2^{(1)}$, $E_{10}$ and Lorentzian KM algebra $P_{10}$ are presented.

We show that an $SL(2,R)_L times SL(2,R)_R$ Chern-Simons theory coupled to a source on a manifold with the topology of a disk correctly describes the entropy of the AdS$_3$ black hole. The resulting boundary WZNW theory leads to two copies of a twisted Kac-Moody algebra, for which the respective Virasoro algebras have the same central charge $c$ as the corresponding untwisted theory. But the eigenvalues of the respective $L_0$ operators are shifted. We show that the asymptotic density of states for this theory is, up to logarithmic corrections, the same as that obtained by Strominger using the asymptotic symmetry of Brown and Henneaux.
We present a construction which associates an infinite sequence of Kac-Moody algebras, labeled by a positive integer n, to one single Jordan algebra. For n=1, this reduces to the well known Kantor-Koecher-Tits construction. Our generalization utilizes a new relation between different generalized Jordan triple systems, together with their known connections to Jordan and Lie algebras. Applied to the Jordan algebra of hermitian 3x3 matrices over the division algebras R, C, H, O, the construction gives the exceptional Lie algebras f4, e6, e7, e8 for n=2. Moreover, we obtain their infinite-dimensional extensions for n greater or equal to 3. In the case of 2x2 matrices the resulting Lie algebras are of the form so(p+n,q+n) and the concomitant nonlinear realization generalizes the conformal transformations in a spacetime of signature (p,q).
We describe Hom-Lie structures on affine Kac-Moody and related Lie algebras, and discuss the question when they form a Jordan algebra.
The motion of a dynamical system on an $n$-dimensional configuration space may be regarded as the lightlike shadow of null geodsics moving in an $(n+2)$ dimensional spacetime known as its Einsenhart-Duval lift. In this paper it is shown that if the configuration space is $n$-dimensional Euclidean space, and in the absence of magnetic type forces, the Eisenhart-Duval lift may be regarded as an $(n+1)$-brane moving in a flat $(n+4)$ -dimensional space with two times. If the Eisenhart-Duval lift is Ricci flat, then the $(n+1)$-brane moves in such a way as to extremise its spacetime volume. A striking example is provided by the motion of $N$ point particles moving in three-dimensional Euclidean space under the influence of their mutual gravitational attraction. Embeddings with curved configuration space metrics and velocity dependent forces are also be constructed. Some of the issues arising from the two times are addressed.
We determine commutative post-Lie algebra structures on some infinite-dimensional Lie algebras. We show that all commutative post-Lie algebra structures on loop algebras are trivial. This extends the results for finite-dimensional perfect Lie algebras. Furthermore we show that all commutative post-Lie algebra structures on affine Kac--Moody Lie algebras are almost trivial.
