Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0722.00010.] The manifold \(M=\text{Diff}_ +(S^ 1)/S^ 1\) plays a role in the geometric formulation of closed string quantum field theory. This paper presents facts about this infinite-dimensional manifold in the form of a Vocabulary listing with definitions and facts about the terms. Forty-nine such terms are explained in this Vocabulary. Some of these terms and their facts represented are attributed to folklore, unpublished, or currently in preprint form. Here is a sampling of the terms: absolute, Bergman kernfunction, Bieberbach-de Branges inequalities, Douady-Earle construction, Graunsky matrix, Kähler potential, Kodaira embedding, Lie-Killing vector fields, Neretin semigroup action, and Verma modules over the Virasoro algebra.
