Infinite-dimensional classical groups of finite \(r\)-rank: description of representations and asymptotic theory (Q797715)

The admissible unitary representations of the following three series of groups are considered; \(G=\mathrm{SO}_ 0(p,\infty)\), \(\mathrm{U}(p,\infty)\) and \(\mathrm{Sp}(p,\infty)\), \(p=0,1,2,...\). The number \(p\) is called the rank of the group. In paragraph 1, results are given in the case of rank 0. In paragraph 4, these results are generalized to the case of rank \(p\geq 1.\) Let \(G(n)\) be groups \(\mathrm{SO}_ 0(p,n-p)\), \(\mathrm{U}(p,n-p)\), and \(\mathrm{Sp}(p,n-p)\), respectively. Considering \(G\) as the inductive limit of \(G(n)\), some approximation results are given in paragraph 5 and these are applied to the classification of representations of rank 0 groups.
