On the classification of unitary representations of reductive Lie groups

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: Suppose G is a real reductive Lie group in Harish-Chandra's class. We propose here a structure for the set Pi_u(G) of equivalence classes of irreducible unitary representations of G. (The subscript u will be used throughout to indicate structures related to unitary representations.) We decompose Pi_{u}(G) into disjoint subsets with a (very explicit) discrete parameter set Lambda_u: Pi_u(G) = �igcup_{lambda_u in Lambda_u} Pi_u^{lambda_u}(G). Each subset is identified conjecturally with a collection of unitary representations of a certain subgroup G(lambda_u) of G. (We will give strong evidence and partial results for this conjecture.) In this way the problem of classifying Pi_u(G) would be reduced (by induction on the dimension of G) to the case G(lambda_u) = G.
