The paper discusses the connections between the geometric invariant theory, Hermite-Einstein metrics and the Kempf-Ness theory for the case of homogeneous vector bundles on a homogeneous projective algebraic variety \(X=G/P\) over \(\mathbb{C}\) where \(G\) is a reductive algebraic group and \(P\) its parabolic subgroup. The author defines the notion of stability for representations of \(P\) and proves that for such a representation \(\alpha\), \(\alpha\) is semistable iff the corresponding homogeneous vector bundle \(E_\alpha\) on \(X\) is ``Mumford semistable'' and iff \(E_\alpha\) admits an approximate Hermite-Einstein metric. For the exact statement one should take care of polarizations, Kähler classes as it is usual in this type of statements. The proof uses the ``easy'' part of Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence but does not use the ``hard'' part based on the Donaldson theorem about the existence of Hermite-Einstein metrics. The introduction of the representation stability permits to make the bypass. As an application there are computations that prove the stability of some bundles on \(\mathbb{P}^n\) and the Kapranov bundles on quadrics. The author remarks that many of the result are known to the specialists but the paper provides a systematic treatment of the topic.
