Fractional spin through quantum affine algebras with vanishing central charge (Q1768686)

This paper studies the decomposition property of the quantum affine algebras with vanishing central charge \(U_Q(\widehat{A}(n))\) and \(U_Q(\widehat{C}(n))\) in the limit \(Q \to q\) where \(q\) is a root of unity. This decomposition is based on the bosonic representation and can be related to fractional supersymmetry and \(k\)-fermionic spin.
