Addition theorems and related geometric problems of group representation theory
The Levi-Civita functional equation (g,h ∈ G), for scalar functions on a topological semigroup G, has as the solutions the functions which have finite-dimensional orbits in the right regular representation of G, that is the matrix elements of G. In considerations of some extensions of the L-C equation one encounters with other geometric problems, for example: 1) which vectors x of the space X of a representation have orbits O(x) that are “close” to a fixed finite-dimensional subspace? 2) for...
