Representations of exponential solvable Lie groups induced from maximal subgroups (Q1310138): Difference between revisions

Let \(G\) be an exponential solvable Lie group. The author studies in detail the mechanism of inducing process up to \(G\) from a unitary representation of a maximal closed connected proper subgroup \(H\). Namely, let \(\nu\) be an irreducible unitary representation of \(H\) and let \(\pi = \text{Ind}^ G_ H \nu\) be the unitary representation of \(G\) induced from \(\nu\). The author analyses this situation in the framework of the orbit method. When \(\dim G/H = 1\), this analysis was previously given by himself [Ann. Sc. Norm. Super. Pisa, Cl. Sci., IV. Ser. 17, 127-164 (1990; Zbl 0724.22006)]. This paper treats the case where \(\dim G/H = 2\) and derives seven mutually exclusive possibilities for the structure of the inducing up. Let \(\mathfrak g\) (resp. \(\mathfrak h\)) be the Lie algebra of \(G\) (resp. \(H\)) and let \(\Omega_ H(\nu) \subset {\mathfrak h}^*\) be the coadjoint \(H\)- orbit corresponding to \(\nu\). There is the unique 1-codimensional subalgebra \(\mathfrak k\) of \(\mathfrak h\) which is a 3-codimensional ideal in \(\mathfrak g\). One takes \(\psi\) in \(\Omega_ H(\nu)\) and considers the irreducible unitary representation \(\gamma\) of \(K = \text{exp }{\mathfrak k}\), which corresponds to \(\theta = \psi| {\mathfrak k}\). Then the key determining factor is the stability subgroup \(G(\gamma)\) of \(\gamma\) in \(G\).
