Integrating central extensions of Lie algebras via Lie 2-groups

Christoph Wockel, Chenchang Zhu (2016)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

The purpose of this paper is to show how central extensions of (possibly infinite-dimensional) Lie algebras integrate to central extensions of étale Lie 2-groups in the sense of [Get09, Hen08]. In finite dimensions, central extensions of Lie algebras integrate to central extensions of Lie groups, a fact which is due to the vanishing of π 2 for each finite-dimensional Lie group. This fact was used by Cartan (in a slightly other guise) to construct the simply connected Lie group associated...

Non-abelian extensions of infinite-dimensional Lie groups

Karl-Hermann Neeb (2007)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

In this article we study non-abelian extensions of a Lie group G modeled on a locally convex space by a Lie group N . The equivalence classes of such extension are grouped into those corresponding to a class of so-called smooth outer actions S of G on N . If S is given, we show that the corresponding set Ext ( G , N ) S of extension classes is a principal homogeneous space of the locally smooth cohomology group H s s 2 ( G , Z ( N ) ) S . To each S a locally smooth obstruction class χ ( S ) in a suitably defined cohomology group...

A decomposition theorem for compact groups with an application to supercompactness

Wiesław Kubiś, Sławomir Turek (2011)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

We show that every compact connected group is the limit of a continuous inverse sequence, in the category of compact groups, where each successor bonding map is either an epimorphism with finite kernel or the projection from a product by a simple compact Lie group. As an application, we present a proof of an unpublished result of Charles Mills from 1978: every compact group is supercompact.

Truncated Lie groups and almost Klein models

Georges Giraud, Michel Boyom (2004)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

We consider a real analytic dynamical system G×M→M with nonempty fixed point subset M G. Using symmetries of G×M→M, we give some conditions which imply the existence of transitive Lie transformation group with G as isotropy subgroup.
