Abstract: In this paper we develop an abstract setup for hamiltonian group actions as follows: Starting with a continuous 2-cochain omega on a Lie algebra h with values in an h-module V, we associate subalgebras sp(h,omega)supeqham(h,omega) of symplectic, resp., hamiltonian elements. Then ham(h,omega) has a natural central extension which in turn is contained in a larger abelian extension of sp(h,omega). In this setting, we study linear actions of a Lie group G on V which are compatible with a homomorphism goham(h,omega), i.e. abstract hamiltonian actions, corresponding central and abelian extensions of G and momentum maps J:goV.
