dc.descriptionIn this paper we prove a residue formula for intersection pairings of reduced spaces of certain quasi-Hamiltonian G-spaces, by constructing the corresponding Hamiltonian G-space. Our argument closely follows the methods of a 1998 paper of the first author and F. Kirwan on intersection numbers in moduli spaces (for G=SU(n)). For the more general class of compact Lie groups treated by Alekseev, Meinrenken and Woodward, we rely on results of Szenes and Brion-Vergne concerning diagonal bases. Our result is a close analogue of the result of Alekseev-Meinrenken-Woodward.
dc.description29 pages; this article presents the main results of the 2004 University of Toronto Ph.D. thesis of J.-H. Song supervised by L.C. Jeffrey. In this version, a close analogue of Alekseev-Meinrenken-Woodward's localization theorem for quasi-Hamiltonian spaces is proved. The summation in Theorem 6.1 is a summation over dominant weights, correcting an error in the previous version, with the result that Theorem 5.5 is analogous to Theorem 6.1 but not equivalent to it. We are posting the final version of the article (as it is published)
