Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Infinite dimensional manifolds, Lie groups and algebras arise naturally in many areas of mathematics and physics. Having been used mainly as a tool for the study of finite dimensional objects, the emphasis has changed and they are now frequently studied for their own independent interest. On the one hand this is a collection of closely related articles on infinite dimensional Kähler manifolds and associated group actions which grew out of a DMV-Seminar on the same subject. On the other hand it covers significantly more ground than was possible during the seminar in Oberwolfach and is in a certain sense intended as a systematic approach which ranges from the foundations of the subject to recent developments. It should be accessible to doctoral students and as well researchers coming from a wide range of areas. The initial chapters are devoted to a rather selfcontained introduction to group actions on complex and symplectic manifolds and to Borel-Weil theory in finite dimensions. These are followed by a treatment of the basics of infinite dimensional Lie groups, their actions and their representations. Finally, a number of more specialized and advanced topics are discussed, e.g., Borel-Weil theory for loop groups, aspects of the Virasoro algebra, (gauge) group actions and determinant bundles, and second quantization and the geometry of the infinite dimensional Grassmann manifold.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume is a collection of refereed research papers on infinite dimensional groups and manifolds in mathematics and quantum physics. Topics covered are: new classes of Lie groups of mappings, the Burgers equation, the Chern--Weil construction in infinite dimensions, the hamiltonian approach to quantum field theory, and different aspects of large N limits ranging from approximation methods in quantum mechanics to modular forms and string/gauge theory duality. Directed at research mathematicians and theoretical physicists as well as graduate students, the volume gives an overview of important themes of research at the forefront of mathematics and theoretical physics.
Download or read book Infinite Dimensional Groups with Applications written by Victor Kac and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume records most of the talks given at the Conference on Infinite-dimensional Groups held at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute at Berkeley, California, May 10-May 15, 1984, as a part of the special program on Kac-Moody Lie algebras. The purpose of the conference was to review recent developments of the theory of infinite-dimensional groups and its applications. The present collection concentrates on three very active, interrelated directions of the field: general Kac-Moody groups, gauge groups (especially loop groups) and diffeomorphism groups. I would like to express my thanks to the MSRI for sponsoring the meeting, to Ms. Faye Yeager for excellent typing, to the authors for their manuscripts, and to Springer-Verlag for publishing this volume.

Download or read book Topology of Infinite Dimensional Manifolds written by Katsuro Sakai and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-21 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An infinite-dimensional manifold is a topological manifold modeled on some infinite-dimensional homogeneous space called a model space. In this book, the following spaces are considered model spaces: Hilbert space (or non-separable Hilbert spaces), the Hilbert cube, dense subspaces of Hilbert spaces being universal spaces for absolute Borel spaces, the direct limit of Euclidean spaces, and the direct limit of Hilbert cubes (which is homeomorphic to the dual of a separable infinite-dimensional Banach space with bounded weak-star topology). This book is designed for graduate students to acquire knowledge of fundamental results on infinite-dimensional manifolds and their characterizations. To read and understand this book, some background is required even for senior graduate students in topology, but that background knowledge is minimized and is listed in the first chapter so that references can easily be found. Almost all necessary background information is found in Geometric Aspects of General Topology, the author's first book. Many kinds of hyperspaces and function spaces are investigated in various branches of mathematics, which are mostly infinite-dimensional. Among them, many examples of infinite-dimensional manifolds have been found. For researchers studying such objects, this book will be very helpful. As outstanding applications of Hilbert cube manifolds, the book contains proofs of the topological invariance of Whitehead torsion and Borsuk’s conjecture on the homotopy type of compact ANRs. This is also the first book that presents combinatorial ∞-manifolds, the infinite-dimensional version of combinatorial n-manifolds, and proofs of two remarkable results, that is, any triangulation of each manifold modeled on the direct limit of Euclidean spaces is a combinatorial ∞-manifold and the Hauptvermutung for them is true.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Geroch's lecture notes "Infinite-Dimensional Manifolds" provide a concise, clear, and helpful introduction to a wide range of subjects, which are essential in mathematical and theoretical physics - Banach spaces, open mapping theorem, splitting, bounded linear mappings, derivatives, mean value theorem, manifolds, mappings of manifolds, scalar and vector fields, tensor products, tensor spaces, natural tensors, tensor fields, tensor bundles, Lie derivatives, integral curves, geometry of Lie derivatives, exterior derivatives, derivative operators, partial differential equations, and Riemannian geometry. Like in his other books, Geroch explains even the most abstract concepts with the help of intuitive examples and many (over 60) figures. Like Geroch's other books, this book too can be used for self-study since each chapter contains examples plus a set of problems given in the Appendix.

Download or read book Kahler geometry of loop spaces written by Armen Sergeev and published by Mathematical Society Of Japan Memoirs. This book was released on 2010-05 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book we study three important classes of infinite-dimensional KÄhler manifolds - loop spaces of compact Lie groups, TeichmÜller spaces of complex structures on loop spaces, and Grassmannians of Hilbert spaces. Each of these manifolds has a rich KÄhler geometry, considered in the first part of the book, and may be considered as a universal object in a category, containing all its finite-dimensional counterparts. On the other hand, these manifolds are closely related to string theory. This motivates our interest in their geometric quantization presented in the second part of the book together with a brief survey of geometric quantization of finite-dimensional KÄhler manifolds. The book is provided with an introductory chapter containing basic notions on infinite-dimensional Frechet manifolds and Frechet Lie groups. It can also serve as an accessible introduction to KÄhler geometry of infinite-dimensional complex manifolds with special attention to the aforementioned three particular classes. It may be interesting for mathematicians working with infinite-dimensional complex manifolds and physicists dealing with string theory.
