Infinite-Dimensional Lie Groups and Algebras in Mathematical Physics
نویسنده
چکیده
We give a review of infinite-dimensional Lie groups and algebras and show some applications and examples in mathematical physics. This includes diffeomorphism groups and their natural subgroups like volume-preserving and symplectic transformations, as well as gauge groups and loop groups. Applications include fluid dynamics, Maxwell’s equations, and plasma physics. We discuss applications in quantum field theory and relativity gravity including BRST and supersymmetries.

Nongraded Infinite-Dimensional Simple Lie Algebras
Nongraded infinite-dimensional Lie algebras appeared naturally in the theory of Hamiltonian operators, the theory of vertex algebras and their multi-variable analogues. They play important roles in mathematical physics. This survey article is written based on the author’s seminar talks on nongraded infinite-dimensional simple Lie algebras. The key constructional ingredients of our Lie algebras ...
متن کاملArithmetic Deformation Theory of Lie Algebras
This paper is devoted to deformation theory of graded Lie algebras over Z or Zl with finite dimensional graded pieces. Such deformation problems naturally appear in number theory. In the first part of the paper, we use Schlessinger criteria for functors on Artinian local rings in order to obtain universal deformation rings for deformations of graded Lie algebras and their graded representations...
متن کاملOn dimension of a special subalgebra of derivations of nilpotent Lie algebras
Let $L$ be a Lie algebra, $mathrm{Der}(L)$ be the set of all derivations of $L$ and $mathrm{Der}_c(L)$ denote the set of all derivations $alphainmathrm{Der}(L)$ for which $alpha(x)in [x,L]:={[x,y]vert yin L}$ for all $xin L$. We obtain an upper bound for dimension of $mathrm{Der}_c(L)$ of the finite dimensional nilpotent Lie algebra $L$ over algebraically closed fields. Also, we classi...
متن کاملDual pairs and infinite dimensional Lie algebras
We construct and study various dual pairs between finite dimensional classical Lie groups and infinite dimensional Lie algebras in some Fock representations. The infinite dimensional Lie algebras here can be either a completed infinite rank affine Lie algebra, the W1+∞ algebra or its certain Lie subalgebras. We give a formulation in the framework of vertex algebras. We also formulate several co...
متن کاملNonlinear $*$-Lie higher derivations on factor von Neumann algebras
Let $mathcal M$ be a factor von Neumann algebra. It is shown that every nonlinear $*$-Lie higher derivation$D={phi_{n}}_{ninmathbb{N}}$ on $mathcal M$ is additive. In particular, if $mathcal M$ is infinite type $I$factor, a concrete characterization of $D$ is given.
