Actions of Cusp Forms on Holomorphic Discrete Series and Von Neumann Algebras

Abstract: A holomorphic discrete series representation

(L_{p} i, H_{p} i)

of a connected semi-simple real Lie group

G

is associated with an irreducible representation

(p i, V_{p i})

of its maximal compact subgroup

K

. The underlying space

H_{p} i

can be realized as certain holomorphic

V_{p i}

-valued functions on the bounded symmetric domain

m a t h c a l D c o n g G / K

. By the Berezin quantization, we transfer

B (H_{p i})

into End

(V_{p i})

-valued functions on

m a t h c a l D

. For a lattice

G a m m a

of

G

, we give the formula of a faithful normal tracial state on the commutant

L_{p} i (G a m m a)^{'}

of the group von Neumann algebra

L_{p i} (G a m m a)^{″}

. We find the Toeplitz operators

T_{f}

's associated with essentially bounded End

(V_{p} i)

-valued functions

f

's on

generate the entire commutant

L_{p} i (G a m m a)^{'}

:

overline{{T_f|fin L^infty(Gamma�ackslashmathcal{D},{ m End}(V_pi))}}^{ ext{w.o.}}=L_pi(Gamma)'.

For any cuspidal automorphic form

f

defined on

G

(or

m a t h c a l D

) for

G a m m a

, we find the associated Toeplitz-type operator

T_{f}

intertwines the actions of

G a m m a

on these square-integrable representations. Hence the composite operator of the form

T_{g}^{*} T_{f}

belongs to

L_{p} i (G a m m a)^{'}

. We prove these operators span

and

overline{langle{ ext{span}_{f,g} T_g^{*}T_f}otimes { m End}(V_pi) angle}^{ ext{w.o.}}=L_pi(Gamma)',

where

f, g

run through holomorphic cusp forms for

G a m m a

of same types. If

G a m m a

is an infinite conjugacy classes group, we obtain a

e x t {I I}_{1}

factor from cusp forms.
