Introduction to Graded Geometry, Batalin-Vilkovisky Formalism and their Applications

Jian Qiu, Maxim Zabzine (2011)

Archivum Mathematicum

These notes are intended to provide a self-contained introduction to the basic ideas of finite dimensional Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) formalism and its applications. A brief exposition of super- and graded geometries is also given. The BV–formalism is introduced through an odd Fourier transform and the algebraic aspects of integration theory are stressed. As a main application we consider the perturbation theory for certain finite dimensional integrals within BV-formalism. As an illustration we present...

Invariance properties of the Laplace operator

Eichhorn, Jürgen (1990)

Proceedings of the Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0699.00032.] The paper deals with a special problem of gauge theory. In his previous paper [The invariance of Sobolev spaces over noncompact manifolds, Partial differential equations, Proc. Symp., Holzhaus/GDR 1988, Teubner- Texte Math. 112, 73-107 (1989; Zbl 0681.58011)], the author introduced the Sobolev completions 𝒞 ¯ P k of the space 𝒞 P of all G-connections on a G-principal fibre bundle P. In the present paper, under the assumption of bounded curvatures and their...

Invariant measure for some differential operators and unitarizing measure for the representation of a Lie group. Examples in finite dimension

Hélène Airault, Habib Ouerdiane (2011)

Banach Center Publications

Consider a Lie group with a unitary representation into a space of holomorphic functions defined on a domain 𝓓 of ℂ and in L²(μ), the measure μ being the unitarizing measure of the representation. On finite-dimensional examples, we show that this unitarizing measure is also the invariant measure for some differential operators on 𝓓. We calculate these operators and we develop the concepts of unitarizing measure and invariant measure for an OU operator (differential operator associated to...

Invariant orders in Lie groups

Neeb, Karl-Hermann (1991)

Proceedings of the Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0742.00067.]The author formulates several theorems about invariant orders in Lie groups (without proofs). The main theorem: a simply connected Lie group G admits a continuous invariant order if and only if its Lie algebra L ( G ) contains a pointed invariant cone. V. M. Gichev has proved this theorem for solvable simply connected Lie groups (1989). If G is solvable and simply connected then all pointed invariant cones W in L ( G ) are global in G (a Lie wedge W L ( G ) is said to...
