Critical Sobolev heat-kernel limit and hyperfunction measure classes

Let νts,m0\nu_t^{s,m_0} be the heat kernels associated with the WsW^s norm on loops, viewed as measures on Hyp(S1,G)\operatorname{Hyp}(S^1,G), where s>1/2s>1/2, t>0t>0, and m0>0m_0>0. Let μl\mu_l be the measure at level ll. Hyperfunction heat-kernel limit conjecture. The measures νts,m0\nu_t^{s,m_0} have a limit as s1/2s\downarrow1/2, and the measure class of this limit equals the measure class of dμld\mu_l, where l=1/(2t)l=1/(2t). As m00m_0\downarrow0, this limit converges to μl\mu_l. This refines the critical-loop conjecture by specifying the limiting measure class and its zero-mode limit.
