  Felix Hausdorff - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Felix Hausdorff (November 8, 1868 – January 26, 1942) was a German mathematician who is considered to be one of the founders of modern topology and who contributed significantly to set theory, descriptive set theory, measure theory, function theory, and functional analysis.
Hausdorff studied at the University of Leipzig, obtaining his Ph.D. in 1891.
Hausdorff was the first to state a generalization of Cantor's Continuum Hypothesis; his Aleph Hypothesis, which appears in his 1908 article Grundzüge einer Theorie der geordneten Mengen, is equivalent to what is now called the Generalized Continuum Hypothesis.

Special attention is given to the estimation of domains of absolute convergence for different presentations of this formula and we use the techniques of majorizing series.
Finally, as an application of matrix exponential formulas, three different types of spectral indices are proved to be equivalent in Chapter 5.
This series of lectures is based on my Ph.D. thesis "Exponential Formulas and Spectral Indices", which was finished in UC Santa Barbara under the supervision of Professor R.C. Thompson.

 The Hausdorff Expansion   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
This expression is usually referred to simply as the Hausdorff expansion, and although it may not immediately appear to be a simplification of the coupled cluster equations, the infinite series truncates naturally in a manner somewhat analogous to that described earlier for the operator,
The important point here, however, is that the commutator has reduced the number of general-index second-quantized operators by one.
Using the truncated Hausdorff expansion, we may obtain analytic expressions for the commutators in Eq.

Many numerical algorithms involve computations in Lie algebras, like composition and splitting methods, methods involving the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula and the recently developed Lie group methods for integration of differential equations on manifolds.
This paper is concerned with complexity and optimization of such computations in the general case where the Lie algebra is free, i.e.

Thus, the sequence of nested commutators in equation (2.65) must truncate after the five terms explicitly written.
Using this truncated Hausdorff expansion, it is possible to obtain analytic expressions for the commutators which may be inserted into both the energy and amplitude equations.
Finally, these equations may then be reduced into expressions that depend only on the amplitudes and the known one- and two-electron integrals.

 Multiplying Quaternions in the Polar Representation
Multiplying two exponentials is at the heart of modern analysis, whether one works with Fourier transforms or Lie groups.
This formula is not easy to use, and is only applicable in a small area around unity.
Quaternion analysis that relies on this formula would be very limited.

Classical Baker-Campbell Hausdorff formula gives a recursive way to compute Z=log(exp(X)exp(Y)) via commutators of X and Y. The series Z lives in the free Lie algebra L generated by X and Y. The first aim of the talk is to present a closed compressed version of Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula in the quotient L/[[L,L],[L,L]].
The second aim is to apply the compressed formula to the Lie algebra of formal vector fields on the real line.
The enveloping algebra of the above Lie algebra is isomorphic to the Landveber-Novikov algebra of cohomological operations in cobordisms.

 John Baez: A lower bound on slickness
Speaking of Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff: is there a slick proof of their formula, or does one just have to fight it out with Taylor series?
The Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula is complicated enough to set a certain lower bound on the slickness of any proof thereof.
This is quantization like physicists always dreamt it would be: the classical Lie algebra of symmetries is now the quantum one.

Instead of using the Frobenius theorem to address the hard direction, I use the Baker--Campbell--Hausdorff formula.
I should point out that the recent book "Lie Groups: An Introduction Through Linear Groups," by Wulf Rossmann (Oxford Univ. Press, 2002), takes a similar approach using matrix (= linear) groups and the Baker--Campbell--Hausdorff formula.
Thus there is considerable overlap between the first two chapters of Rossmann's book and the first three chapters of my book.
