Abstract
The case of a noninteracting infinite Bose gas at zero temperature is studied in the formalism of local current algebras, using the representation theory of nuclear Lie groups. The class of representations describing such a system is obtained by taking an ``N / V limit'' of the finite case. These representations can also be determined uniquely from the solutions of a functional differential equation, which follows in turn from a condition on the ground state vector. Finally a system of functional differential equations is formulated for a theory with interactions, using a proposed definition of indefinite functional integration.
