A Lie-algebraic approach to the local index theorem on compact homogeneous spaces
Seunghun Hong ;
Date 22 Oct 2012
AbstractUsing a K-theory point of view, R. Bott related the Atiyah-Singer index theorem for elliptic operators on compact homogeneous spaces to the Weyl character formula. This dissertation explains how to prove the local index theorem for compact homogenous spaces using Lie algebra methods. The method follows in outline the proof of the local index theorem due to N. Berline and M. Vergne. But the use of B. Kostant’s cubic Dirac operator in place of the Riemannian Dirac operator leads to substantial simplifications. An important role is also played by the quantum Weil algebra of A. Alekseev and E. Meinrenken.
