Loop groups, the simplest class of infinite dimensional Lie groups,
have recently been the subject of intense study. This book gives a
complete and self-contained account of what is known about them
from a geometrical and analytical point of view, drawing together
the many branches of mathematics from which current theory
developed--algebra, geometry, analysis, combinatorics, and the
mathematics of quantum field theory. The authors discuss Loop
groups' applications to simple particle physics and explain how the
mathematics used in connection with Loop groups is itself
interesting and valuable, thereby making this work accessible to
mathematicians in many fields.
