    A Vogan diagram for a real form of a Lie algebra is a Dynkin diagram with additional structure relating to the orbits of simple roots under the Cartan involution. The author's main result is that given an abstract Vogan diagram for a nontwisted affine Kac-Moody Lie algebra, there exists an almost compact real form of such an algebra such that the given diagram is the Vogan diagram of this almost compact real form.
