Polynomial loops as Hahn series #
The polynomial loop algebra loopAlgebra R Γ L = R[Γ] ⊗[R] L of a Lie algebra L over a
commutative ring R embeds into the Lie algebra HahnModule Γ R L of L-valued Hahn series,
sending t ^ a ⊗ x to the monomial x t ^ a. For Γ = ℤ this is the inclusion of the polynomial
loop algebra L[t, t⁻¹] into the formal loop algebra L((t)).

Instances For
The coefficients of the image of a polynomial loop are its coefficients.
The loop t ^ a ⊗ x is sent to the monomial x t ^ a.
Distinct polynomial loops have distinct images in the Hahn series.
The embedding is natural in the Lie algebra: applying a morphism f : L → L' to the
coefficients of the image of a polynomial loop gives the image of the loop transformed by f.
