      Let G be a connected complex reductive algebraic group which is viewed as a real Lie group by taking its complex points and then ignoring its complex structure. The corresponding real Lie group is denoted by \(G_{{\mathbb{R}}}\) and its complexification by \(G_{{\mathbb{C}}}\). A similar convention is used for Lie algebras. Let W be the Weyl group of \({\mathfrak g}=Lie G\) and S a set of simple reflections in W. The pair (W,S) generates a braid group B. The Weyl group \(W_{{\mathbb{C}}}\) of \({\mathfrak g}_{{\mathbb{C}}}\) is isomorphic to \(W\times W.\) Let \({\mathfrak h}_{{\mathbb{C}}}\) be a Cartan subalgebra of \({\mathfrak g}_{{\mathbb{C}}}\) and \(\rho\) equals half the sum of the positive roots of (\({\mathfrak g}_{{\mathbb{C}}},{\mathfrak h}_{{\mathbb{C}}})\). Let P be a Borel subgroup of G. The paper reviewed treats the induced Harish-Chandra modules \(Ind^ G_ P(-w\rho +\rho)\), \(w\in W_{{\mathbb{C}}}\). The main result is a criterion for two such modules being isomorphic. The criterion consists in coincidence of some two elements in B. It can be also formulated in terms of the graded characters [see part I; J. Algebra 123, 289-326 (1989; Zbl 0688.22002)]. This result gives a classification of principal series modules for \(G_{{\mathbb{R}}}\) with integral regular infinitesimal characters (up to the isomorphism of Harish-Chandra modules).
