Zusammenfassung:Symmetric spaces associated with Lie algebras and Lie groups which are Riemannian manifolds have recently got a lot of attention in various branches of Physics for their role in classical/quantum integrable systems, transport phenomena, etc. Their infinite dimensional counter parts have recently been discovered which are affine Kac-Moody symmetric spaces. In this paper we have (algebraically) explicitly computed the affine Kac-Moody symmetric spaces associated with affine Kac-Moody algebras A{sub 1}{sup (1)},A{sub 2}{sup (1)},A{sub 2}{sup (2)}. We hope these types of spaces will play similar roles as that of symmetric spaces in many physical systems.
