No label defined (Q4953447)

This is the collection of lecture notes from a workshop in summer 1998, in Park City, U.S.A. Let \(G\) be a complex semisimple Lie group, with a real form \(G_0\). Consider the flag manifold \(G/Q\), where \(Q\) is a parabolic subgroup. If \(G_0\) is compact, many aspects of the transitive \(G_0\)-action on \(G/Q\) are well understood, including the realization as coadjoint orbits, \(G_0\)-invariant Hermitian structures, the homogeneous bundles and the corresponding Dolbeault cohomology (Borel-Weil-Bott). The present lecture notes consider the more general case where \(G_0\) is not compact. In this case the \(G_0\)-action on \(G/Q\) is no longer transitive, and it is appropriate to work with a measurable open \(G_0\)-orbit \(D\subset G/Q\) called the flag domain. The objects of interest are now elliptic coadjoint orbits, a \(G_0\)-invariant indefinite Hermitian metric on \(D\), harmonic forms with coefficients in homogeneous bundles over \(D\). The unitary \(G_0\)-representations on these harmonic forms are discussed. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0936.00032].
