    Extended affine Lie algebras (EALA) are natural generalizations of affine Lie algebras in the way that the ring of Laurent polynomials \({\mathbb C}[t,t^{-1}]\) (entering in the definition of affine Lie algebra) is replaced with another (suitable!) associative, possibly non-commutative, ring \(R\). While this generalization in straightforward in the algebraic setup, it is often not clear what the right group theoretic notion should be associated to these objects. Even if \(R\) is a quantum torus \(C_q\), one would have to employ ideas of non-commutative geometry. In spite of that, there has been significant progress made in (algebraic) representation theory of EALA, mostly by the author of this paper and others. Let \({\tau}=\text{gl}_n \otimes C_q\). If we add a pair of derivations to \(\tau\) we get \(\tilde{\tau}\) as in the paper, which is EALA provided that \(q\) is generic. The main result in the paper is classification of irreducible integrable \(\tilde{\tau}\)-modules, under the condition that the degree zero center of \(\tilde{\tau}\) acts non-trivially. The classification problem is still open when the degree zero central part acts trivially. Proof are combinations of well-known techniques in the case of affine Lie algebras (after Chari and Pressley) and previous work by the author.
