Irreducibility of the Koopman representations for the group ${\rm GL}_0(2\infty,{\mathbb R})$ acting on three infinite rows

Our aim is to find the irreducibility criteria for the Koopman representation, when the group acts on some space with a measure (Conjecture 1.5). Some general necessary conditions of the irreducibility of this representation are established. In the particular case of the group ${\rm GL}_0(2\infty,{\mathbb R})$ $= \varinjlim_{n}{\rm GL}(2n-1,{\mathbb R})$, the inductive limit of the general linear groups we prove that these conditions are also the necessary ones. The correspon...

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...

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.

Consider an infinite-dimensional linear space equipped with a Gaussian measure and the group $GL(\infty)$ of linear transformations that send the measure to equivalent one. Limit points of $GL(\infty)$ can be regarded as 'spreading' maps (polymorphisms). We show that the closure of $GL(\infty)$ in the semigroup of polymorphisms contains a certain semigroup of operator colligations and write explicit formulas for action of operator colligations by polymorphisms of the space wi...

In this paper we investigate relations between Koopman, groupoid and quasi-regular representations of countable groups. We show that for an ergodic measure class preserving action of a countable group G on a standard Borel space the associated groupoid and quasi-regular representations are weakly equivalent and weakly contained in the Koopman representation. Moreover, if the action is hyperfinite then the Koopman representation is weakly equivalent to the groupoid. As a corol...

Let $O(\infty)$ and $U(\infty)$ be the inductively compact infinite orthogonal group and infinite unitary group respectively. The classifications of ergodic probability measures with respect to the natural group action of $O(\infty)\times O(m)$ on $\mathrm{Mat}(\mathbb{N}\times m, \mathbb{R})$ and that of $U(\infty)\times U(m)$ on $\mathrm{Mat}(\mathbb{N}\times m, \mathbb{C})$ are due to Olshanski. The original proofs for these results are based on the asymptotic representati...

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...

The induced representation ${\rm Ind}_H^GS$ of a locally compact group $G$ is the unitary representation of the group $G$ associated with unitary representation $S:H\rightarrow U(V)$ of a subgroup $H$ of the group $G$. Our aim is to develop the concept of induced representations for infinite-dimensional groups. The induced representations for infinite-dimensional groups in not unique, as in the case of a locally compact groups. It depends on two completions $\tilde H$ and $\t...

The aim of the present survey paper is to provide an accessible introduction to a new chapter of representation theory - harmonic analysis for noncommutative groups with infinite-dimensional dual space. I omitted detailed proofs but tried to explain the main ideas of the theory and its connections with other fields. The fact that irreducible representations of the groups in question depend on infinitely many parameters leads to a number of new effects which never occurred i...
