Basic gerbe over non simply connected compact groups
We present an explicit construction of the basic bundle gerbes with connection over all connected compact simple Lie groups. These are geometric objects that appear naturally in the Lagrangian approach to the WZW conformal field theories. Our work extends the recent construction of E. Meinrenken [9] restricted to the case of simply connected groups.
متن کاملSymmetry Groups of Non-simply Connected Four-manifolds
LetM be a closed, connected, orientable topological four-manifold with H1(M) nontrivial and free abelian, b2(M) 6= 0, 2, and χ(M) 6= 0. Then the only finite groups which admit homologically trivial, locally linear, effective actions on M are cyclic. The proof uses equivariant cohomology, localization, and a careful study of the first cohomology groups of the (potential) singular set.
متن کاملString Junctions and Non-simply Connected Gauge Groups
Relations between the global structure of the gauge group in elliptic F-theory compactifications, fractional null string junctions, and the Mordell-Weil lattice of rational sections are discussed. We extend results in the literature, which pertain primarily to rational elliptic surfaces and obtain π(G̃) where G̃ is the semi-simple part of the gauge group. We show how to obtain the full global str...
متن کاملA Character Formula for Representations of Loop Groups Based on Non-simply Connected Lie Groups
In this paper we compute characters of certain irreducible representations of loop groups based on non simply connected Lie groups. Apart from a general representation theoretic interest, our motivation to study these characters comes from the fact that they appear naturally in the theory of moduli spaces of semistable principal bundles over elliptic curves. The characters of highest weight rep...
