Dirac Induction for Loop Groups
Using a coset version of the cubic Dirac operators for affine Lie algebras, we give an algebraic construction of the Dirac induction homomorphism for loop group representations. With this we prove a homogeneous generalization of the Weyl–Kac character formula and show compatibility with Dirac induction for compact Lie groups.
متن کاملModular Forms and Three Loop Superstring Amplitudes
We study a proposal of D’Hoker and Phong for the chiral superstring measure for genus three. A minor modification of the constraints they impose on certain Siegel modular forms leads to a unique solution. We reduce the problem of finding these modular forms, which depend on an even spin structure, to finding a modular form of weight 8 on a certain subgroup of the modular group. An explicit form...
متن کاملGerbal Representations of Double Loop Groups
A crucial role in representation theory of loop groups of reductive Lie groups and their Lie algebras is played by their non-trivial second cohomology classes which give rise to their central extensions (the affine Kac–Moody groups and Lie algebras). Loop groups embed into the group GL∞ of continuous automorphisms of C((t)), and these classes come from a second cohomology class of GL∞. In a sim...
متن کاملMultiplets of Representations and Kostant’s Dirac Operator for Equal Rank Loop Groups
Let g be a semisimple Lie algebra, and let h be a reductive subalgebra of maximal rank in g. Given any irreducible representation of g, consider its tensor product with the spin representation associated to the orthogonal complement of h in g. Recently, B. Gross, B. Kostant, P. Ramond, and S. Sternberg [2] proved a generalization of the Weyl character formula which decomposes the signed charact...
متن کاملIndecomposable Representations and the Loop-space Operation1
For a certain class of algebras, including group-algebras of finite groups, we shall introduce a permutation in the set of isomorphismclasses of nonprojective indecomposable modules. This permutation is in essence given by the loop-space functor [2]. It is to be hoped that the study of this permutation may give some insight into the difficult problem of classifying indecomposable representation...
