About Robert V. Moody
Robert Vaughan Moody, OC FRSC is a Canadian mathematician. He is the co-discover of Kac-Moody algebra, a Lie algebra, usually infinite-dimensional, that can be defined through a generalized root system. Arturo Pianzola is the author of Lie Algebras with Triangular Decompositions, published by Wiley.
