Title: Fundamentals of Lie theory for groupoids and algebroids
Speaker: María Amelia Salazar - Universidade Federal Fluminense
Abstract: The foundation of Lie theory is Lie's three theorems that provide a construction of the Lie algebra associated to any Lie group; the converses of Lie's theorems provide an integration, i.e. a mechanism for constructing a Lie group out of a Lie algebra. The Lie theory for groupoids and algebroids has many analogous results to those for Lie groups and Lie algebras, however, it differs in important respects: one of these aspects is that there are Lie algebroids which do not admit any integration by a Lie groupoid. In joint work with Cabrera and Marcut, we showed that the non-integrability issue can be overcome by considering local Lie groupoids instead. In this talk I will explain a construction of a local Lie groupoid integrating a given Lie algebroid and I will point out the similarities with the classical theory for Lie groups and Lie algebras.
