From a topological theory of semigroup to a geometric one.
It is shown, using geometric methods, that there is a C*-algebraic quantum group related to any double Lie group (also known as a matched pair of Lie groups or a bicrossproduct Lie group). An algebra underlying this quantum group is the algebra of a differential groupoid naturally associated with the double Lie group.
We define the wave front set of a distribution vector of a unitary representation in terms of pseudo-differential-like operators [M2] for any real Lie group G. This refines the notion of wave front set of a representation introduced by R. Howe [Hw]. We give as an application a necessary condition so that a distribution vector remains a distribution vector for the restriction of the representation to a closed subgroup H, and we give a propagation of singularities theorem for distribution vectors.
For the scalar holomorphic discrete series representations of and their analytic continuations, we study the spectrum of a non-compact real form of the maximal compact subgroup inside . We construct a Cayley transform between the Ol’shanskiĭ semigroup having as Šilov boundary and an open dense subdomain of the Hermitian symmetric space for . This allows calculating the composition series in terms of harmonic analysis on . In particular we show that the Ol’shanskiĭ Hardy space for is different...
Let G be a compactly generated, locally compact group with polynomial growth and let ω be a weight on G. We look for general conditions on the weight which allow us to develop a functional calculus on a total part of L1(G,ω). This functional calculus is then used to study harmonic analysis properties of L1(G,ω), such as the Wiener property and Domar's theorem.
This paper contains an application of Langlands’ functoriality principle to the following classical problem: which finite groups, in particular which simple groups appear as Galois groups over ? Let be a prime and a positive integer. We show that that the finite simple groups of Lie type if and appear as Galois groups over , for some divisible by . In particular, for each of the two Lie types and fixed we construct infinitely many Galois groups but we do not have a precise control...
