[For the entire collection see Zbl 0722.00011.] Let \(G\) be a solvable, exponential Lie group, with Lie algebra \({\mathfrak g}\). Let \(H\) be a connected subgroup of \(G\), \({\mathfrak h}\) the corresponding subalgebra of \({\mathfrak g}\), and \(\chi\) a unitary character of \(H\). We are interested in the representation \(\text{ind}_ H^ G\chi\) of \(G\) induced by \(\chi\). A substantial part of this paper consists of concrete computations in low-dimensional cases. However, the main theorem is a general result that provides a direct integral decomposition of \(\text{ind}_ H^ G\chi\) into irreducible representations of \(G\) with explicit multiplicities. The result is essentially the same as that obtained in the nilpotent case by \textit{L. Corwin, F. Greenleaf, G. Grélaud} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 304, 549-583 (1987; Zbl 0629.22005)]. The proof is by induction on the dimension together with an analysis of certain 2, 3, 4, and 6 dimensional solvable Lie algebras. In addition, the author explores via examples two additional questions regarding \(\text{ind}_ H^ G\chi\); these concern Frobenius reciprocity and an explicit Plancherel formula.
