This chapter investigates the Duistermaat–Heckman theorem using the theory of hyperfunctions. In applications involving Hamiltonian torus actions on infinite-dimensional manifolds, the more general theory seems to be necessary in order to accommodate the existence of the infinite-order differential operators which arise from the isotropy representations on the tangent spaces to fixed points. The chapter quickly reviews the theory of hyperfunctions and their Fourier transforms. It then applies this theory to construct a hyperfunction analogue of the Duistermaat–Heckman distribution. The main goal will be to study the Duistermaat–Heckman distribution of the loop space of SU(2) but it will also characterize the singular locus of the moment map for the Hamiltonian action of T×S 1 on the loop space of G. The main goal of this chapter is to present a Duistermaat–Heckman hyperfunction arising from a Hamiltonian group action on an infinite-dimensional manifold.

Infinite Dimensional Manifold

Let $X$ be a compact 4-manifold with boundary. We study the space of hyperkähler triples $\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}_{1},\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}_{2},\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}_{3}$ on $X$, modulo diffeomorphisms which are the identity on the boundary. We prove that this moduli space is a smooth infinite-dimensional manifold and describe the tangent space in terms of triples of closed anti-self-dual 2-forms. We also explore the corresponding boundary value problem: a hyperkähler triple restricts to a closed framing of the bundle of 2-forms on the boundary; we identify the infinitesimal deformations of this closed framing that can be filled in to hyperkähler deformations of the original triple. Finally we study explicit examples coming from gravitational instantons with isometric actions of $\text{SU}(2)$.

Continuum Theories

We present a framework for the study of bodies that contains evolving nonmaterial interfaces. Although analogs of material points and sub-bodies do not exist for such interfaces, we are able to construct a kinematic structure that allows the definition of an interfacial configuration. Equipping the collection of all such configurations, the interfacial configuration space, with the structure of an infinite-dimensional manifold leads to the definition of generalized velocities and forces as elements of the tangent and cotangent bundles of that space. A representation theorem then yields a non-classical force system that arises in recent continuum theories for the study of coherent phase transitions. Associating the underlying body with a particular reference configuration, we find, further, that the elements of that force system are subject to a balance that is also imposed in such theories.

Infinite Dimensional Manifold

In this paper for a given Banach, possibly infinite dimensional, manifold M we focus on the geometry of its iterated tangent bundle TrM, r ∈ ℕ ∪ {∞}. First we endow TrM with a canonical atlas using that of M. Then the concepts of vertical and complete lifts for functions and vector fields on TrM are defined which they will play a pivotal role in our next studies i.e. complete lift of (semi)sprays. Afterward we supply T∞M with a generalized Fréchet manifold structure and we will show that any vector field or (semi)spray on M, can be lifted to a vector field or (semi)spray on T∞M. Then, despite of the natural difficulties with non-Banach modeled manifolds, we will discuss about the ordinary differential equations on T∞M including integral curves, flows and geodesics. Finally, as an example, we apply our results to the infinite-dimensional case of manifold of closed curves.

Many important equations of mathematical physics arise geometrically as geodesic equations on Lie groups. In this paper, we study an example of a geodesic equation, the two-component Hunter–Saxton (2HS) system, which displays a number of unique geometric features. We show that 2HS describes the geodesic flow on a manifold, which is isometric to a subset of a sphere. Since the geodesics on a sphere are simply the great circles, this immediately yields explicit formulae for the solutions of 2HS. We also show that when restricted to functions of zero mean, 2HS reduces to the geodesic equation on an infinite-dimensional manifold, which admits a Kähler structure. We demonstrate that this manifold is in fact isometric to a subset of complex projective space, and that the above constructions provide an example of an infinite-dimensional Hopf fibration.
