From Lie Algebras to Lie Groups within Synthetic Differential Geometry:Weil Sprouts of Lie's Third Fundamental Theorem

Abstract: Weil prolongations of a Lie group are naturally Lie groups. It is not known in the theory of infinite-dimensional Lie groups how to construct a Lie group with a given Lie algebra as its Lie algebra or whether there exists such a Lie group at all. We will show in this paper how to construct some Weil prolongations of this mythical Lie group from a given Lie algebra. We will do so within our favorite framework of synthetic differential geometry.
