We classify non-trivial (non-central) extensions of the group $Diff^+(S^1)$ of all diffeomorphisms of the circle preserving its orientation and of the Lie algebra $Vect (S^1)$ of vector fields on $S^1$, by the modules of tensor-densities on…

In conformal field theory, the semigroup of annuli with boundary parametrization plays a special role, in that it generates the whole algebra of local conformal symmetries, the so-called Virasoro algebra. The subgroup of elements…

Neretin and Segal independently defined a semigroup of annuli with boundary parametrizations, which is viewed as a complexification of the group of diffeomorphisms of the circle. By extending the parametrizations to quasisymmetries, we show…

The goal of this paper is to study the representation theory of a classical infinite-dimensional Lie algebra - the Lie algebra of vector fields on an N-dimensional torus for N > 1. The case N=1 gives a famous Virasoro algebra (or its…

We study homeomorphisms of the circle that are smooth diffeomorphisms away from a finite set of $n$ points. These "broken diffeomorphisms" do not form a Lie group, but instead naturally assemble into a Lie groupoid. We construct an explicit…

In this paper we generalize some of these results for loop algebras and groups as well as for the Virasoro algebra to the two-dimensional case. We define and study a class of infinite dimensional complex Lie groups which are central…

We consider the universal central extension of the Lie algebra $\Vect (S^1)${\math \s}$ C^{\infty}(S^1)$. The coadjoint representation of this Lie algebra has a natural geometric interpretation by matrix analogues of the Sturm-Liouville…

We construct a one-parameter family of properly embedded minimal annuli in the Heisenberg group Nil_3 endowed with a left-invariant Riemannian metric. These annuli are not rotationally invariant. This family gives a vertical half-space…

Let $V$ be a standard subspace in the complex Hilbert space $H$ and $G$ be a finite dimensional Lie group of unitary and antiunitary operators on $H$ containing the modular group $(\Delta_V^{it})_{t \in R}$ of $V$ and the corresponding…

A unitary representation of a, possibly infinite dimensional, Lie group $G$ is called semi-bounded if the corresponding operators $i\dd\pi(x)$ from the derived representations are uniformly bounded from above on some non-empty open subset…

We show that every unitary positive energy representation W of the Virasoro algebra exponentiates to a holomorphic *-representation of the semigroup of annuli by bounded operators on the Hilbert space completion of W. We use this to show…

We classify nontrivial deformations of the standard embedding of the Lie algebra $\Vect(S^1)$ of smooth vector fields on the circle, into the Lie algebra~$\PD(S^1)$ of pseudodifferential symbols on $S^1$. This approach leads to deformations…

The affine current algebra for Lie superalgebras is examined. The bilinear invariant forms of the Lie superalgebra can be either degenerate or non-degenerate. We give the conditions for a Virasoro construction, in which the currents are…

The conformal anomaly and the Virasoro algebra are fundamental aspects of 2D conformal field theory and conformally covariant models in planar random geometry. In this article, we explicitly derive the Virasoro algebra from an…

Let $A_n=\mathbb{C}[t_i^{\pm1},~1\leq i\leq n]$ and $\mathbf{W}(n)_\mu=A_nd_\mu$ the solenoidal Lie algebra introduced by Y.Billig and V.Futorny in \cite{BiFu2}, where $\mu=(\mu_1,\ldots,\mu_n)\in\mathbb{C}^n$ is a generic vector and…

Motivated by recent progress on the correspondence between string theory on anti-de Sitter space and conformal field theory, we address the question of constructing space-time N extended superconformal algebras on the boundary of AdS_3.…

Let $n\ge2$ be an integer, $\mathcal{K}_n$ the Weyl algebra over the Laurent polynomial algebra $A_n=\mathbb{C} [x_1^{\pm1}, x_2^{\pm1}, ..., x_n^{\pm1}]$, and $\mathbb{S}_n$ the Lie algebra of divergence zero vector fields on an…

A unitary representation of a, possibly infinite dimensional, Lie group G is called semi-bounded if the corresponding operators id\pi(x) from the derived representations are uniformly bounded from above on some non-empty open subset of the…

This article is concerned with an extensive study of an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sv}$, introduced in the context of non-equilibrium statistical physics, containing as subalgebras both the Lie algebra of invariance of the…

We investigate the notion of Connes-amenability for dual Banach algebras, as introduced by Runde, for bidual algebras and weighted semigroup algebras. We provide some simplifications to the notion of a $\sigma WC$-virtual diagonal, as…
