Super multiplicative integrals (Q1283352)

The author presents a generalization to the case of supergroups of the globally supported order 0 irreducible unitary representations of gauge groups (cocycle representations). Let \({\mathcal G}\) be a Lie superalgebra whose even part \({\mathcal G}_0\) is \(Lie (G)\) - the Lie algebra of a real Lie group \(G\) - with an appropriate extension of \(Ad\) action to \({\mathcal G}\). If \(G^M=C^\infty(M,G)\) is the group of smooth compactly supported functions from a manifold \(M\) to \(G\) (a function from \(M\) to \(G\) is compactly supported if it reduces to the identity element of \(G\) outside a compact set of \(M\)), the author constructs a cocycle representation of the pair \((G^M,{\mathcal G}^M)\). The main result is a generalization to the case of the gauge supergroups of a theorem of \textit{I. M. Gel'fand, M. Graev} and \textit{A. Vershik} [Funkts. Anal. Prilozh. 8(3), 67-69 (1974; Zbl 0299.22004)].
