[For the entire collection see Zbl 0745.00033.] The classification of parabolic subsets of root systems of finite dimensional semisimple Lie algebras is well-known. There is a construction of an irreducible module over a finite dimensional semisimple Lie algebra for every parabolic subset. Such a module is the unique irreducible quotient of a generalized Verma module. In particular, the author obtained irreducible quotients of Verma modules. Analogous constructions exist for Kac-Moody Lie algebras. The structure of parabolic subsets of root systems of affine Lie algebras the study of which was begun in the author's paper [On two constructions of representations of affine Lie algebras, The methods of functional analysis in the problems of mathematical physics Kiev, Inst. Math., 86-88 (1987)] turns out to be richer than the finite dimensional case. The aim of this paper (the final (detailed) version of this paper will be submitted for publication elsewhere) is to give the classification of all such parabolic subsets. The existence of new parabolic subsets permits to build new irreducible modules over affine Lie algebras which are not quotients of generalized Verma modules but have many important analogous properties.
