Lie groups of 𝐶𝑘-maps on non-compact manifolds and the fundamental theorem for Lie group-valued mappings

Abstract

Abstract We study the existence of Lie group structures on groups of the form C k ⁢ ( M , K ) C^{k}(M,K) , where 𝑀 is a non-compact smooth manifold with rough boundary and 𝐾 is a, possibly infinite-dimensional, Lie group. Motivated by introducing this new class of infinite-dimensional Lie groups, we obtain a new version of the fundamental theorem for Lie algebra-valued functions.
