Abstract
We investigate the category of finite-dimensional representations of twisted hyper-loop algebras, i.e., the hyperalgebras associated to twisted loop algebras over finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras. The main results are the classification of the irreducible modules, the definition of the universal highest-weight modules, called the Weyl modules, and, under a certain mild restriction on the characteristic of the ground field, a proof that the simple modules and the Weyl modules for the twisted hyper-loop algebras are isomorphic to appropriate simple and Weyl modules for the nontwisted hyper-loop algebras, respectively, via restriction of the action.
