Decomposition of reductive regular prehomogeneous vector spaces

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: Let (G,V) be a regular prehomogeneous vector space (abbreviated to PV), where G is a connected reductive algebraic group over C. If V=oplusi=0nVi is a decomposition of V into irreducible representations, then, in general, the PV's (G,Vi) are no longer regular. In this paper we introduce the notion of quasi-irreducible PV (abbreviated to Q-irreducible), and show first that for completely Q-reducible PV's, the Q-isotopic components are intrinsically defined, as in ordinary representation theory. We also show that, in an appropriate sense, any regular PV is a direct sum of quasi-irreducible PV's. Finally we classify the quasi-irreducible PV's of parabolic type.
