Lifting bundle gerbes and central extensions of gauge groups

The loop group Map(S¹,G) has a central extension by the circle called the Kac-Moody group. We use the techniques introduced in [29] to generalise this construction to higher mapping groups such as Map(∑,G) and construct the central extension ...
