Abstract

Let V be a finite-dimensional real vector space and K a compact simple Lie group with Lie algebra ř. Consider the Fréchet–Lie group G:= J0°(V; K) of i-jets at 0 e V of smooth maps V ! K, with Lie algebra g = 70° (V ; ř). Let P be a Lie group and write p:= Lie(P). Let a be a smooth P-action on G. We study smooth projective unitary representations p of G xœ P that satisfy a so-called generalized positive energy condition. In particular, this class captures representations that are in a suitable sense compatible with a KMS state on the von Neumann algebra generated by -ρ(G'). We show that this condition imposes severe restrictions on the derived representation dp of g ì p, leading in particular to sufficient conditions for X|g to factor through J0¡(V; K), or even through K.
