Index Formula for Hamiltonian Loop Group Spaces

We study K-theory classes of Hamiltonian loop group spaces represented by admissible Fredholm complexes. We prove various equivariant index formulae in this context. In a sequel to this article we show that, when specialized to a family of non-local elliptic boundary value problems over the moduli space of framed flat connections on a surface, one obtains a gauge theory analogue of the Teleman–Woodward index formula.
