Schwinger terms, gerbes, and operator residues
A unitary representation of a, possibly infinite dimensional, Lie group is called semibounded if the corresponding operators from the derived representation are uniformly bounded from above on some non-empty open subset of the Lie algebra of . We classify all irreducible semibounded representations of the groups which are double extensions of the twisted loop group , where is a simple Hilbert–Lie group (in the sense that the scalar product on its Lie algebra is invariant) and is...
We describe representations of certain superconformal algebras in the semi-infinite Weil complex related to the loop algebra of a complex finite-dimensional Lie algebra and in the semi-infinite cohomology. We show that in the case where the Lie algebra is endowed with a non-degenerate invariant symmetric bilinear form, the relative semi-infinite cohomology of the loop algebra has a structure, which is analogous to the classical structure of the de Rham cohomology in Kähler...
