Continuous families of quasi-regular representations of solvable Lie groups (Q1908162)

Generalizing the case of two step nilpotent Lie groups the author proves the following result: Let \((\Gamma_t)_{t \geq 0}\) be a continuous family of cocompact discrete subgroups of a simply connected Lie group \(G\) such that the right regular representations of \(G\) on \(L^2(\Gamma_t \setminus G)\) are all unitarily equivalent. Then if \(G\) is solvable with only real roots, there exists a unique continuous family \((\Phi_t)_{t \geq 0}\) of automorphisms of \(G\) such that each \(\gamma \in \Gamma_0\) is \(G\)-conjugate to \(\Phi_t(\gamma)\) for any \(t\) and \(\Gamma_t = \Phi_t(\Gamma_0)\).
