Explicit Kazhdan constants for representations of semisimple and arithmetic groups

Yehuda Shalom (2000)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

Consider a simple non-compact algebraic group, over any locally compact non-discrete field, which has Kazhdan’s property ( T ) . For any such group, G , we present a Kazhdan set of two elements, and compute its best Kazhdan constant. Then, settling a question raised by Serre and by de la Harpe and Valette, explicit Kazhdan constants for every lattice Γ in G are obtained, for a “geometric” generating set of the form Γ B r , where B r G is a ball of radius r , and the dependence of r on Γ is described...

An example of a generalized completely continuous representation of a locally compact group

Detlev Poguntke (1993)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

There is constructed a compactly generated, separable, locally compact group G and a continuous irreducible unitary representation π of G such that the image π(C*(G)) of the group C*-algebra contains the algebra of compact operators, while the image π ( L 1 ( G ) ) of the L 1 -group algebra does not containany nonzero compact operator. The group G is a semidirect product of a metabelian discrete group and a “generalized Heisenberg group”.

The dual space of precompact groups

M. Ferrer, S. Hernández, V. Uspenskij (2013)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

For any topological group G the dual object G ^ is defined as the set of equivalence classes of irreducible unitary representations of G equipped with the Fell topology. If G is compact, G ^ is discrete. In an earlier paper we proved that G ^ is discrete for every metrizable precompact group, i.e. a dense subgroup of a compact metrizable group. We generalize this result to the case when G is an almost metrizable precompact group.

On group representations whose C * algebra is an ideal in its von Neumann algebra

Edmond E. Granirer (1979)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

Let τ be a continuous unitary representation of the locally compact group G on the Hilbert space H τ . Let C τ * [ V N τ ] be the C * [ W * ] algebra generated by ( L 1 ( G ) ) and M τ ( C τ * ) = φ V N τ ; φ C τ * + C τ * φ C τ * . The main result obtained in this paper is Theorem 1: If G is σ -compact and M τ ( C τ * ) = V N τ then supp τ is discrete and each π in supp τ in CCR. We apply this theorem to the quasiregular representation τ = π H and obtain among other results that M π H ( C π H * ) = V N π H implies in many cases that G / H is a compact coset space.
