Groups of Asymptotic Diffeomorphisms

We consider classes of diffeomorphisms of Euclidean space with partial asymptotic expansions at infinity; the remainder term lies in a weighted Sobolev space whose properties at infinity fit with the desired application. We show that two such classes of asymptotic diffeomorphisms form topological groups under composition. As such, they can be used in the study of fluid dynamics according to the method of V. Arnold. Specific applications have been obtained for the Camassa-Holm equation and the Euler equations.
