Induced representations of infinite-dimensional groups

We classify irreducible unitary representations of the group of all infinite matrices over a $p$-adic field ($p\ne 2$) with integer elements equipped with a natural topology. Any irreducible representation passes through a group $GL$ of infinite matrices over a residue ring modulo $p^k$. Irreducible representations of the latter group are induced from finite-dimensional representations of certain open subgroups.

The article is devoted to the representation theory of locally compact infinite-dimensional group $\mathbb{GLB}$ of almost upper-triangular infinite matrices over the finite field with $q$ elements. This group was defined by S.K., A.V., and Andrei Zelevinsky in 1982 as an adequate $n=\infty$ analogue of general linear groups $\mathbb{GL}(n,q)$. It serves as an alternative to $\mathbb{GL}(\infty,q)$, whose representation theory is poor. Our most important results are the des...

We study the structure of minimal parabolic subgroups of the classical infinite dimensional real simple Lie groups, corresponding to the classical simple direct limit Lie algebras. This depends on the recently developed structure of parabolic subgroups and subalgebras that are not necessarily direct limits of finite dimensional parabolics. We then discuss the use of that structure theory for the infinite dimensional analog of the classical principal series representations. We...

We study representations of the classical infinite dimensional real simple Lie groups $G$ induced from factor representations of minimal parabolic subgroups $P$. This makes strong use of the recently developed structure theory for those parabolic subgroups and subalgebras. In general parabolics in the infinite dimensional classical Lie groups are are somewhat more complicated than in the finite dimensional case, and are not direct limits of finite dimensional parabolics. We e...

This paper contains a complete description of classes of the unitary equivalence of the admissible representations of infinite-dimensional classic matrix groups paper.

Let $X_{\pi}$ be the subspace of fixed vectors for a uniformly bounded representation $\pi$ of a group $G$ on a Banach space $X$. We study the problem of the existence and uniqueness of a subspace $Y$ that complements $X_{\pi}$ in $X$. Similar questions for $G$-invariant complement to $X_{\pi}$ are considered. We prove that every non-amenable discrete group $G$ has a representation with non-complemented $X_{\pi}$ and find some conditions that provide an $G$-invariant compleme...

In earlier papers we studied direct limits $(G,K) = \varinjlim (G_n,K_n)$ of two types of Gelfand pairs. The first type was that in which the $G_n/K_n$ are compact Riemannian symmetric spaces. The second type was that in which $G_n = N_n\rtimes K_n$ with $N_n$ nilpotent, in other words pairs $(G_n,K_n)$ for which $G_n/K_n$ is a commutative nilmanifold. In each we worked out a method inspired by the Frobenius--Schur Orthogonality Relations to define isometric injections $\zeta...

It is well-known that characters classify linear representations of finite groups, that is if characters of two representations of a finite group are the same, these representations are equivalent. It is also well-known that, in general, this is not true for representations of infinite groups, even if they are finitely generated. The goal of this paper is to establish a characterization of representations of finitely generated groups in terms of projective joint spectra. This...

Making use of a unified approach to certain classes of induced representations, we establish here a number of detailed spectral theoretic decomposition results. They apply to specific problems from non-commutative harmonic analysis, ergodic theory, and dynamical systems. Our analysis is in the setting of semidirect products, discrete subgroups, and solenoids. Our applications include analysis and ergodic theory of Bratteli diagrams and their compact duals; of wavelet sets, an...

We study the von Neumann algebra, generated by the unitary representations of infinite-dimensional groups nilpotent group $B_0^{\mathbb N}$. The conditions of the irreducibility of the regular and quasiregular representations of infinite-dimensional groups (associated with some quasi-invariant measures) are given by the so-called Ismagilov conjecture (see [1,2,9-11]). In this case the corresponding von Neumann algebra is type ${\rm I}_\infty$ factor. When the regular represen...
