Integrability Criterion for Abelian Extensions of Lie Groups

Differential Geometry 2012-03-12 v4

Abstract

We establish a criterion for when an abelian extension of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras integrates to a corresponding Lie group extension G^\hat{G} of GG by AA, where GG is a connected, simply connected Lie group and AA is a quotient of its Lie algebra by some discrete subgroup. When GG is non-simply connected, the kernel AA is replaced by a central extension A^\hat{A} of π1(G)\pi_1(G) by AA.
