Abstract

We modify the Hochschild φ-map to construct central extensions of a restricted Lie algebra. Such central extension gives rise to a goup scheme that leads to a geometric construction of unrestricted representations. For a classical semisimple Lie algebra, we construct equivariant line bundles whose global sections afford representations with a nilpotentp-character.
