3 u, v = n j=1 u j v j u, v C n, bilinear inner product z = x iy z = x + iy C n, x, y R n u, v z 2 = z, z the usual inner product in C n the usual norm on C n p t (x) = 1 e n/2 (2πt) x 2 2t, x R n µ t (z) = 1 (2πt) n e z 2 t, z C n

4 The heat kernels, p t and µ t, are the fundamental solutions to the heat equations in R n and C n with the Laplacians = n j=1 2 x 2 j C = n j=1 ( 2 x 2 j + 2 y 2 j ) z = (z 1,..., z n ) C n, z j = x j + iy j, x j, y j R.

5 Namely, p t is the solution to u (t, x) t u (t, x) = 0, x R n, 0 < t <, u (0, x) = δ (x), where δ (x) is the Dirac delta function. The general solution to the heat equation on R n is given by a convolution with p t with the initial value u (0, x) = f (x) u (t, x) = x 2 2t R p R n t (x y) f (y) dy = e f (y) e x,y t n ) (x) = (p t f) (x), f L 2 (R n, dx) ( e t 2 f p t (y) dy

6 H (C n ) HL 2 (C n, µ t (z) dz) the space of holomorphic functions on C n H (C n ) L 2 (C n, µ t (z) dz) Theorem (Bargmann) Let t > 0 and 1 < p <. For any function f L p (R n, p t (x) dx) the convolution p t f has a unique analytic continuation, S t f, to C n given by (S t f) (z) = e z,z 2t z,u f (u) e t p t (u) du, z C n. Rn Moreover, S t is a unitary operator from L 2 (R n, p t (x) dx) onto the space HL 2 (C n, µ t (z) dz).

7 Plan of a proof. Step 1. (S t f) (z) H and (S t f) (x) = (p t f) (x) for any x R n Step 2. (Polynomial basis over C n ) For a multiindex α = (k 1,..., k n ) of nonnegative integers let n z α = z k j, α = α! = j=1 n j=1 n j=1 k j k j!

8 Then the set {z α } forms an orthogonal basis of HL 2 (C n, µ t (z) dz). If f H (C n ) and has the pointwise convergent power series f(z) = α c α z α, c α C, then C n f (z) 2 µ t dz = α c α 2 t α α! The first series is convergent in L 2 (C n, µ t ) if either side of the second identity is finite. Step 3.(Bargmann s pointwise bounds) If f HL 2 (C n, µ t ), then f(z) 2 e z 2 t f 2 L 2 (C n,µ t ), z Cn.

9 Remark (Monotonicity of L 2 norm.) Let 0 k < n. Denote by µ (k) t heat kernel density for C k. Then the f (z) 2 µ (k) C k t dz C n f (z) 2 µ (n) t dz, f H (C n ). Step 4. (Total sets) Let f a (u) = e a,u, a C n, u R n, g a (z) = e a,z, a C n, z C n. For any 1 < p < the sets {f a : a R n } and {f a : a ir n } are each total in L p (R n, p t dx), that is, the linear span of the set is dense in L p (R n, p t dx). The set {g a : a R n } is total in HL 2 (C n, µ t dz).

10 Step 5. (Transform on exponentials) (S t f a ) (z) = e z,u +t a 2 2, (S t f a, S t f b ) L 2 (C n,µ t dz) = (f a, f b ) L 2 (R n,p t dx), a, b Cn.

12 T t (C n ) the full Fock space of α = α 2 t <. k=0 α k, α k Mult k (C n, C), F t (C n ) the bosonic Fock space of α T t (C n ) such that α k Sym k (C n, C) H (C n ) the space of holomorphic functions f : C n C. D h f(z) d ds t=0 f (z + th) the directional derivative of f H (C n ) D h1 D hk f (z) is a symmetric k linear form on C n which is linear in each variable separately. It is denoted by D k f (z) as a linear form on C n... C n.

14 If (1 D) 1 z f 2 t = k=0 t k k! Dk f (z) 2 <, then (1 D) 1 z f F t (C n ).

15 Theorem (Bargmann-Krée) For any f HL 2 (C n, dµ t ) (1 D) 1 0 f F t (C n ) Moreover, the map (1 D) 1 0 : HL 2 (C n, µ t (z)) F t (C n ) is a surjective isometry. Plan of a proof. The isometry: (1 D) 1 0 f 2 t = C n f (z) 2 dµ t (z), f H (C n )

16 Surjectivity: let α F t (C n ) define Then f (z) = k=0 α k (z,..., z). k! f (z) 2 k=0 α k (z,..., z) k! 2 k=0 α k z k k! 2 k=0 t k α k 2 k! k=0 z k t k k! α 2 t e z 2 t, z C n

22 The heat kernel measure p t (g) dg can be described also as the distribution in t of the process g t satisfying the Stratonovich stochastic differential equation δg t = g t δw t, g 0 = I or Itô s stochastic differential equation dg t = g t dw t g t d 1 ξ 2 i dt, g 0 = I W t the Brownian motion on the Lie algebra g with the identity operator as its covariance W t = d b t i ξ i i=1

23 where b t i are real-valued Brownian motions mutually independent on a probability space (Ω, F, P ). P t f (I) = E [f (g t )] Itô s calculus as the box calculus dt dt = 0, dt db t = 0, db t db t = dt dw t dw t = d db t i ξ i d db t i ξ i = d ξ 2 i dt. i=1 i=1 i=1 Itô s product formula for B, C : M n (C) L (M n (C)), F, G : M n (C) M n (C)

25 G = SU (2) g = su (2) { A = { A = ( ) a b c d ( ) α β γ δ } : A A = I, det A = 1 } : A + A = 0, tr A = 0 inner product on su (2) A, B = tr B A U 1 AU, U 1 BU = A, B, A, B su (2), U SU (2) o.n.b. ξ j = i 2 σ j, j = 1, 2, 3 Pauli matrices σ 1 = ( ), σ 2 = ( 0 i i 0 ), σ 3 = ( )

26 For any U SU (2) U = U (ϕ, θ, ψ) = cos θ 2 ei(ϕ+ψ) 2 i sin θ 2 ei(ϕ ψ) 2 i sin θ 2 e i(ϕ ψ) 2 cos θ 2 e i(ϕ+ψ) 2 Euler angles 0 ϕ < 2π, 0 θ π, 2π ψ < 2π Theorem (Laplacian on SU (2)) = ξ ξ2 2 + ξ3 2 = 2 2 θ sin 2 θ 2 ϕ 2 4 cos θ sin 2 θ sin 2 θ 2 ψ + 2cos θ sin θ θ 2 ϕ ψ

27 Let b t 1, bt 2 and bt 3 be three real-valued independent Brownian motions. Then the Brownian motion on SU (2) is a solution to δg t = g t (δb t 1 ξ 1 + δb t 2 ξ 2 + δb t 3 ξ 3 ), g 0 = ( ) since dg t = g t (db t 1 ξ 1 + db t 2 ξ 2 + db t 3 ξ 3 ) 3 2 g tdt, g 0 = ( ) σ σ2 2 + σ2 3 = 3I. Theorem. The process g t SU (2) with probability 1. Its generator is the Laplacian described above.

28 Proof. 1. g t is unitary. First write an SDE for g t since W t = W t. By Itô s product formula dg t = dw tg t 1 2 g t dt, g 0 = ( ) d ( g t g t ) = dgt g t + g tdg t + dg t dg t = g t dw t g t 3 2 g tg t dt g tdw t g t 3 2 g tg t dt + dg t dg t = g t gt dt + g tgt dt = 0,

29 since dw t dw t = d j=1 ξ 2 j dt = 3Idt. 2. det g t = 1. Denote g t = ( At B t C t D t ) W t = ( iα t β t + iγ t β t + iγ t iα t ) where α t, β t, γ t are independent real-valued Brownian motions.

30 da t = ia t dα t B t dβ t + ib t dγ t 3 2 A tdt db t = ib t dα t + A t dβ t + ia t dγ t 3 2 B tdt dc t = ic t dα t D t dβ t + id t dγ t 3 2 C tdt dd t = id t dα t + C t dβ t + ic t dγ t 3 2 D tdt By Itô s product formula d det g t = D t da t +A t dd t C t db t B t dc t +da t dd t db t dc t Thus d det g t = 0 with g 0 = 1.

31 Theorem (B. Driver, L. Gross) Let G be a connected complex Lie group, and g its Lie algebra. Suppose that f is in H (G). Define the kth Taylor coefficient of f at I to be the element D k f (I) in g k determined by D k f (I), ξ 1... ξ k = ξ 1... ξ k f (I), ξ 1,..., ξ k g with D 0 f (I) = f (I). Then the map (1 D) 1 I : f k=0 D k f (I) from H (G) into T (g) is a unitary operator from HL 2 (G, µ t ) onto F t. B.

41 Theorem (G.) Suppose that Q is a trace-class operator. Then [SDEs] the stochastic differential equations dg t = T G t dt + dw t G t, G 0 = X, dz t = Z t T dt Z t dw t, Z 0 = Y have unique solutions in HS. [Inverse]. The solutions of these SDEs with G 0 = Z 0 = I satisfy Z t G t = I with probability 1 for any t > 0.

Definition. The heat kernel measure µ t on HS is the transition probability of the stochastic process G t, that is, µ t (A) = P (G t A). Open question: quasi-invariance of the heat kernel measures.

43 CAMERON-MARTIN GROUP AND ISOMETRIES HL 2 (µ t ) the closure in L 2 (µ t ) of holomorphic polynomials HP on HS. Theorem (G.) [Holomorphic skeletons] For any f HL 2 (µ t ) there is a holomorphic function f on G CM such that for any x G CM and p m HP if p m L 2 (µ t ) f, then p m (x) f(x).

44 This skeleton f is given by the formula f(x)= (DI k f)(c(s 1)... c(s k ))d s, k=0 0 s 1... s k 1 where D k f is the kth derivative of function f, and c(s) = g(s) 1 g (s) for any smooth path g(s) from I to x. A larger space of holomorphic functions: H t (G CM ) f t, = holomorphic functions on G CM such that lim n f t,n= lim n G n f(z) 2 dµ n t (z) <.

45 Theorem(G.) [Pointwise estimates] For any f H t (G CM ), g G CM, 0 < s < t ( ) (D k f)(g) 2 k! (g ) k s k f 2 t, exp d 2 (g,i) t s. Theorem (G.) Q : HS HS (or so HS or sp HS ). If Q is trace class, then the heat kernel measure lives in GL HS (or SO HS or Sp HS ), and H t (G CM ) is an infinite dimensional Hilbert space. If the covariance operator Q is the identity operator, then H t (G CM ) contains only constant functions.

46 Theorem(G.) [ISOMETRIES] The skeleton map is an isometry from HL 2 (µ t ) to H t (G CM ) (the restriction map on holomorphic polynomials HP extends to an isometry between the spaces HL 2 (µ t ) and H t (G CM )). If Q is a trace class operator, then HL 2 (µ t ) is an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. The Taylor map f k=0 D k f(i) is an isometry from H t (G CM ) to the Fock space F t (g), a subspace of the dual of the tensor algebra of g with the norm α 2 t = k=0 t k k! α k 2.

48 F t (g) T (g) a Hilbert space in the dual of the universal enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra g the tensor algebra over g J the two-sided ideal in T (g) generated by {ξ η η ξ [ξ, η]; ξ, η g}. T (g) J 0 =. k=0 (g k ), the algebraic dual of the tensor algebra T (g) the annihilator of J in the dual space T (g).

49 α 2 t = k=0 t k k! α k 2 (g k ), α= k=0 α k, α k (g k ), k=0, 1, 2,... The generalized bosonic Fock space is F t (g) = {α J 0 : α 2 t < } This is the space of Taylor coefficients of functions from H t (G CM ).

50 CAMERON-MARTIN GROUP AND EXPONENTIAL MAP Definition. The Cameron-Martin group is G CM ={x GL(H), d(x, I) < }, where d is the Riemannian distance induced by : d(x, y)= inf g(0)=x g(1)=y 1 Finite dimensional approximations: 0 g(s) 1 g (s) g ds g n ascending finite dimensional Lie subalgerbas of g, G n Lie groups with Lie algebras Assumption: all g n are invariant subspaces of Q.

51 Theorem (G.) If [X, Y ] c X Y then 1. g = g n, and the exponential map is a local diffeomorphism from g to G CM. 2. G n is dense in G CM in the Riemannian distance induced by.
