Infinite dimensional Chevalley groups and Kac-Moody groups over $\mathbb{Z}$

Abstract: Let $A$ be a symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix, which is not of finite or affine type. Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be the corresponding Kac-Moody algebra over a commutative ring $R$ with $1$. We construct an infinite-dimensional group $G_V(R)$ analogous to a finite-dimensional Chevalley group over $R$. We use a $\mathbb{Z}$-form of the universal enveloping algebra of $\mathfrak{g}$ and a $\mathbb{Z}$-form of an integrable highest-weight module $V$. We construct groups $G_V(\mathbb{Z})$ analogous to arithmetic subgroups in the finite-dimensional case. We also consider a universal representation-theoretic Kac-Moody group $G$ and its completion $\widetilde{G}$. For the completion we prove a Bruhat decomposition $\widetilde{G}({\mathbb{Q}})=\widetilde{G}({\mathbb{Z}})\widetilde{B}({\mathbb{Q}})$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, and that the arithmetic subgroup $\widetilde{\Gamma}(\mathbb{Z})$ coincides with the subgroup of integral points $\widetilde{G}(\mathbb{Z})$
