On the Geometry of the Virasoro-bott Group
We consider a natural Riemannian metric on the infinite dimensional manifold of all embeddings from a manifold into a Riemannian manifold, and derive its geodesic equation in the case Emb(R, R) which turns out to be Burgers’ equation. Then we derive the geodesic equation, the curvature, and the Jacobi equation of a right invariant Riemannian metric on an infinite dimensional Lie group, which we...
متن کاملCoadjoint Orbits of the Virasoro Group
The coadjoint orbits of the Virasoro group, which have been investigated by Lazutkin and Pankratova and by Segal, should according to the Kirillov-Kostant theory be related to the unitary representations of the Virasoro group. In this paper, the classification of orbits is reconsidered, with an explicit description of the possible centralizers of coadjoint orbits. The possible orbits are diff(S...
متن کاملOn geodesic exponential maps of the Virasoro group
We study the geodesic exponential maps corresponding to Sobolev type right-invariant (weak) Riemannian metrics μ (k ≥ 0) on the Virasoro group and show that for k ≥ 2, but not for k = 0, 1, each of them defines a smooth Fréchet chart of the identity. For k = 0 and k = 1 the corresponding geodesic flows are related to the Korteweg de Vries and Camassa Holm equations. In particular, the geodesic ...
متن کاملAn Algebraic Analog of the Virasoro Group
The group of diffeomorphisms of a circle is not an infinite-dimensional algebraic group, though in many ways it behaves as if it were. Here we construct an algebraic model for this object, and discuss some of its representations, which appear in the Kontsevich-Witten theory of two-dimensional topological gravity through the homotopy theory of moduli spaces. [This is a version of a talk on 23 Ju...
متن کاملGroup Quantization on Configuration Space *
New features of a previously introduced Group Approach to Quantization are presented. We show that the construction of the symmetry group associated with the system to be quantized (the “quantizing group”) does not require, in general, the explicit construction of the phase space of the system, i.e., does not require the actual knowledgement of the general solution of the classical equations of...
