(Adapted from the introduction): For a compact connected Lie group \(K\) with maximal torus \(T\) the classical Borel-Weil theorem states that, for each choice of a system of positive roots, one can obtain the representation with highest weight \(\gamma:T\to S^1\) as the space of holomorphic sections of the bundle \(G\times_T\mathbb{C}\to G/T\). The loop group \(LK=C^\infty (S^1,K)\) behaves in many ways like \(K\) (it has the structure of a Fréchet Lie group), and the author's aim is to develop Borel-Weil theory in the Fréchet setting from an analytic point of view. In particular he describes an intrinsic construction of the irreducible positive energy representations which does not refer to embeddings of loop groups into infinite-dimensional classical Banach Lie groups. The parametrisation of these representations is derived from a characterisation of those line bundles over a complex homogeneous space of \(LK\), which have non-zero holomorphic sections. Those wanting a taste of the results and the methods should turn to the core of the paper in Section VI. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0967.00012].
