In this talk\, w e will explore how the coadjoint orbits\nof this representation carry a na tural symplectic structure called the\nKirillov-Kostant-Souriau (KKS) form . The KKS form is preserved by the\naction. If time permits\, we will show that there is a moment map for\nthe action that coincides with the inclus ion map of the orbit. A\nworked example for SU(2) will be performed.\n\nMC 5403\n DTSTAMP:20250515T205108Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
