Homogeneous deformations of discrete groups.
It is well known that every -factorizable group is -narrow, but not vice versa. One of the main problems regarding -factorizable groups is whether this class of groups is closed under taking continuous homomorphic images or, alternatively, whether every -narrow group is a continuous homomorphic image of an -factorizable group. Here we show that the second hypothesis is definitely false. This result follows from the theorem stating that if a continuous homomorphic image of an -factorizable...
A -Hopf algebra is a -algebra which is also a convenient Hopf algebra with respect to the structure induced by the evaluations of smooth functions. We characterize those -Hopf algebras which are given by the algebra of smooth functions on some compact Lie group , thus obtaining an anti-isomorphism of the category of compact Lie groups with a subcategory of convenient Hopf algebras.
We prove that, for a distinguished laplacian on an Iwasawa AN group corresponding to a complex semisimple Lie group, a Hörmander type multiplier theorem holds. Our argument is based on Littlewood-Paley theory.
The goal of this article is to explain Howe's correspondence to a reader who is not necessarily an expert on representation theory of real reductive groups, but is familiar with general concepts of harmonic analysis. We recall Howe's construction of the oscillator representation, the notion of a dual pair and a few basic and general facts concerning the correspondence.
For every closed subset C in the dual space of the Heisenberg group we describe via the Fourier transform the elements of the hull-minimal ideal j(C) of the Schwartz algebra and we show that in general for two closed subsets of the product of and is different from .
We prove that Huygens’ principle and the principle of equipartition of energy hold for the modified wave equation on odd dimensional Damek–Ricci spaces. We also prove a Paley–Wiener type theorem for the inverse of the Helgason Fourier transform on Damek–Ricci spaces.
