The commutator anomalies (Schwinger terms) of current algebras in $3+1$ dimensions are computed in terms of the Wodzicki residue of pseudodifferential operators; the result can be written as a (twisted) Radul 2-cocycle for the Lie algebra…

Let M be a closed manifold. Wodzicki shows that, in the stable range, the cyclic cohomology of the associative algebra of pseudodifferential symbols of order \leq 0 is isomorphic to the homology of the cosphere bundle of M. In this article…

Using {\it weighted traces} which are linear functionals of the type $$A\to tr^Q(A):=(tr(A Q^{-z})-z^{-1} tr(A Q^{-z}))_{z=0}$$ defined on the whole algebra of (classical) pseudo-differential operators (P.D.O.s) and where $Q$ is some…

We consider pseudodifferential operators on functions on $\R^{n+1}$ which commute with the Euler operator, and can thus be restricted to spaces of functions homogeneous of some given degree. Their symbols can be regarded as functions on a…

We aim at extending the definition of the Weyl calculus to an infinite dimensional setting, by replacing the phase space $ \mathbb{R}^{2n}$ by $B^2$, where $(i,H,B)$ is an abstract Wiener space. A first approach is to generalize the…

We discuss 2-cocycles of the Lie algebra $\Map(M^3;\g)$ of smooth, compactly supported maps on 3-dimensional manifolds $M^3$ with values in a compact, semi-simple Lie algebra $\g$. We show by explicit calculation that the…

In this article, we consider algebras $\mathcal{A}$ of non-formal pseudodifferential operators over $S^1$ which contain $C^\infty(S^1),$ understood as multiplication operators. We apply a construction of Chern-Weil type forms in order to…

In this paper we develop the generalised Schur theory offered in the recent paper by the second author in dimension one case, and apply it to obtain a new explicit parametrisation of torsion free rank one sheaves on projective irreducible…

We introduce a 1-cocycle on the group of diffeomorphisms Diff$(M)$ of a smooth manifold $M$ endowed with a projective connection. This cocycle represents a nontrivial cohomology class of $\Diff(M)$ related to the Diff$(M)$-modules of second…

An expression for the curvature of the "covariant" determinant line bundle is given in even dimensional space-time. The usefulness is guaranteed by its prediction of the covariant anomaly and Schwinger term. It allows a parallel derivation…

Let $(S,L)$ be a Lie-Rinehart algebra such that $L$ is $S$-projective and let $U$ be its universal enveloping algebra. In this paper we present a spectral sequence which converges to the Hochschild cohomology of $U$ with values on a…

One computes the cohomology of the projective embedding of sl(m+1,R) acting on the differential operators on densities on R^m of various weights. This cohomology is non vanishing only for some special critical values of the weights. This…

We introduce new concepts in order to develop a general formalism for twisted differential operators in several variables. We investigate the notion of twisted coordinates on Huber rings that allows us to build various rings of twisted…

We define Hochschild cohomology of the second kind for differential graded (dg) or curved algebras as a derived functor in the twisted derived category, and show that it is invariant under suitable Morita equivalences of the second kind. A…

In this work we study some general classes of pseudodifferential operators whose symbols are defined in terms of phase space estimates.

We develop a geometric framework for Weyl quantization on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds, in which pseudodifferential operators act on sections of vector bundles equipped with arbitrary connections. We construct the associated star product and…

Current superalgebras and corresponding Schwinger terms in 1 and 3 space dimensions are studied. This is done by generalizing the quantization of chiral fermions in an external Yang-Mills potential to the case of a Z_2-graded potential…

Starting out from a new description of a class of parameter-dependent pseudodifferential operators with finite regularity number due to G. Grubb, we introduce a calculus of parameter-dependent, poly-homogeneous symbols whose homogeneous…

Let Vect(R) be the Lie algebra of smooth vector fields on R. The space of symbols Pol(T^* R) admits a non-trivial deformation (given by differential operators on weighted densities) as a Vect(R)-module that becomes trivial once the action…

These notes explain recent developments concerning chiral anomalies and hamiltonian quantization, their relation to the theory of gerbes, and extensions of generalized loop algebras using the residue calculus of pseudodifferential…
