The extended affine Lie algebras (EALAs for short) are important graded Liealgebras,which include finite dimensional simple Lie algebras,affine Kac-MoodyLie algebras,Lie algebras coordinated by Laurent polynomial torus and quantumtorus,and a class of Tits-Kantor-Kocher algebras coordinated by Jordan torus.It iswell known that toroidal Lie algebra (with certain central elements and derivationsadded) is a generalization of non-twist affine Kac-Moody algebra.It is an EALAcoordinated by Laurent polynomial torus Av=C[t1±1,...,tv±1].The classification ofirreducible integrable represetations for affine Kac-Moody algebras and toroidal Liealgebras have been studied by many researchers,such as [C,CP1,E1,E2,E3,E4,EJ]etc.The irreducible integrable represetations include a class of represetationswhere central elements act as zero.These represetations are related to the finitedimensional irreducible represetations for the loop algebra or multi-loop algebra.Thus it is important to consider the finite dimensional irreducible represetations forsome infinite dimensional Lie algebras.In this paper,we define a class of infinite dimensional Lie algebras,whichgeneralize the toroidal Lie algebras of type Bl and Dl.Let so(n,C) for n≥3 be thecomplex orthogonal Lie algebra with basis{αij:=eij-eji|1≤i≠j≤n}where eij is the matrix with unit 1 in (i,j)-entry and 0 elsewhere.Let A be anycommutative associative algebra over C with identity,and E1,...,En∈A be anyfixed elements.We define a Lie algebra on so(n,C) (?) A with the following bilinearmultiplication:[αij (?) f,αjk(?)g]=αik(?) Ejfg,[αij(?),f,αij(?) g]= [αij (?) f,αkl(?) g]=0,where i,j,k,l distinct,and f,g∈A.We call it gradation shifting toroidal Lie al-gebra,and denote it by Ln(E1,...,En).Note that if A = Av,E1=…=En = 1,Ln(1,...,1) is a multi-loop algebra,and the universal central extension is a toroidalLie algebra.The case n = 3 is given in [LT].In [LT],the authors give the derivationsand universal central extension of L3(ts1,ts2,1),and give a class of vertex operator represetations for L3(t1,t2,1) with two varibles.And in [CLT],the authors obtainthe automorphism group and a class of Wakimoto represetations for L(t1,t2,1).Inparticular,when n = 3,the authors of [SG]generalize the difinition to noncom-mutative associative algebra A.The gradation shifting toroidal Lie algebra is ageneralization of [LT].We prove that gradation shifting toroidal Lie algebra Ln(E1,...,En) is perfectif and only if∑k≠i,jEkA = A,for any i<j.In particular,if the elements E1,...,Enare units of A,then there exist s1,...,sn∈Z2v,such thatLn(E1,...,En)≌Ln(ts1,...,tsn).We only consider the case Ei's are units.In this case,Ln(ts1,...,ts2) is a finitelygenerated and ((Z/2Z)n,1/2 Zv)-graded perfect Lie algebra.We obtain the derivationsand universal central extension of gradation shifting toroidal Lie algebra.Becausethe case n = 4 is very different from the other cases,we divide our main result intotwo cases.In what follows,we discuss the finite dimensional irreducible represetationsfor the gradation shifting toroidal Lie algebra.We define a Lie algebra surjectivehomomorphism from gradation shifting toroidal Lie algebra Ln(ts1,...,tsn) ontosemisimple Lie algebra so(n,C)⊕N (direct sum of N copies of so(n,C)).This im-plies that any finite dimensional irreducible represetation for so(n,C)⊕N can belifted to finite dimensional irreducible represetation for gradation shifting toroidalLie algebra Ln(ts1,...,tsn) through this surjective homomorphism.Conversely,wealso prove that any finite dimensional irreducible represetation for Ln(ts1,...,tsn)comes from the irreducible represetation for so(n,C)⊕N.We note that,there doesnot exist usual Cartan subalgebra in gradation shifting toroidal Lie algebra.Theproof is different from the case of multi-loop algebras considered by S.Eswara Rao.So instead of choosing a Cartan subalgebra,we choose another finite dimensionalabelian subalgebra.By citeAABGP,we know that the extended affine root system of type A1 isdecided by the semi-lattice A in the Euclidean space.If nullity is 0,the EALAmust be finite dimensional simple Lie algebra,and if nullity is 0,the EALA mustbe affine Kac-Moody algebra.Therefore,we first consider the theories for the casenullity= 2.Note that in the Euclidean space R2,there are only two non-similar semi-lattices:the lattice Z2 and the smallest possible (non-lattice) semi-lattice S.The semi-lattice S corresponds to the baby Tits-Kantor-Koecher algebra (?)(J(S)).Thebaby Tits-Kantor-Koecher algebra (with certain central elements and derivationsadded) is related to the"smallest"extended affine Lie algebras other than the finitedimensional simple Lie algebras and the affine Kac-Moody algebras.In [T3]and[MT1],vertex operator represetations for the universal central extension of the TKKalgebra (?)(J(S)) are obtained,and a class of Wakimoto represetations for (?)(J(S))are given in [MT2].For the Lie algebra sll+1(CQ) coordinated by a quantum torus CQ,whereQ = (qij)1≤i,j≤2,(qij = qi-j,q is Nth-primitive root of unity),the classificationof the finite dimensional irreducible represetations are given in [EB].In [EB],theauthors prove that any finite dimensional irreducible represetation for sll+1(CQ)comes from finite dimensional irreducible represetation for the semi-simple Lie alge-bra⊕slN(l+1) (C) (a suitable number of copies) through certain surjective Lie algebrahomomorphism.We note that when q = -1,TKK algebra (?)(J(Z2)) is isomorphicto sl2(CQ).Therefore,from [EB],we know that any finite dimensional irreduciblerepresetation for the TKK algebra (?)(J(Z2)) comes from finite dimensional irre-ducible represetation for the semi-simple Lie algebra⊕sl4(C) (a suitable number ofcopies).We generalize this result to baby-TKK algebra (?)(J(S)).We prove that anyfinite dimensional irreducible represetation for baby-TKK algebra (?)(J(S)) comesfrom finite dimensional irreducible represetation for the semi-simple Lie algebra⊕sp4(C) (a suitable number of copies).
