Spinor modules for Hamiltonian loop group spaces

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: Let LG be the loop group of a compact, connected Lie group G. We show that the tangent bundle of any proper Hamiltonian LG-space mathcalM has a natural completion overlineTmathcalM to a strongly symplectic LG-equivariant vector bundle. This bundle admits an invariant compatible complex structure within a natural polarization class, defining an LG-equivariant spinor bundle mathsfSoverlineTmathcalM, which one may regard as the Spinc-structure of mathcalM. We describe two procedures for obtaining a finite-dimensional version of this spinor module. In one approach, we construct from mathsfSoverlineTmathcalM a twisted Spinc-structure for the quasi-Hamiltonian G-space associated to mathcalM. In the second approach, we describe an `abelianization procedure', passing to a finite-dimensional TsubsetLG-invariant submanifold of mathcalM, and we show how to construct an equivariant Spinc-structure on that submanifold.
