Abstract

In [12] , the authors classified a class of simple modules over untwised affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras, on these modules each weight vector of the positive parts of affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras acts locally finitely. In this paper, for all affine-Virasoro algebras we also classify all simple modules with the similar property. We determine that there are precisely three classes of simple modules on which each weight vector of the positive part of any affine-Virasoro algebra acts locally finitely: simple highest weight or Whittaker Virasoro algebra modules, simple highest weight or Whittaker affine Lie algebra modules, and simple highest weight or Whittaker affine-Virasoro algebra modules which are neither simple Virasoro algebra modules nor simple affine Lie algebra modules. We also obtain three equivalent conditions to characterize such simple modules over affine-Virasoro algebras. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
