EXPONENTIATIONS OVER THE QUANTUM ALGEBRA Uq(sl2(C))
We define and compare, by model-theoretical methods, some exponentiations
over the quantum algebra Uq(sl2(C)). We discuss two cases, according to whether the
parameter q is a root of unity. We show that the universal enveloping algebra of sl2(C)
embeds in a non-principal ultraproduct of Uq(sl2(C)), where q varies over the primitive
roots of unity
Integrating Unitary Representations of Infinite-Dimensional Lie Groups
We show that in the presence of suitable commutator estimates, a projective
unitary representation of the Lie algebra of a connected and simply connected
Lie group G exponentiates to G. Our proof does not assume G to be
finite--dimensional or of Banach-Lie type and therefore encompasses the
diffeomorphism groups of compact manifolds. We obtain as corollaries short
proofs of Goodman and Wallach's results on the integration of positive energy
representations of loop groups and Diff(S^{1}) and of Nelson's criterion for
the exponentiation of unitary representations of finite-dimensional Lie
algebras.Comment: Available from Academic Press at http://www.academicpress.com/jf
