It seems that this method is a useful tool (maybe most powerful?) for similar problems.</p> <p>But I'm not quite understand why smooth transfer on Lie algebra level implies that on group level, and this is not explained in Jacquet's paper. Maybe it is not too difficult, but I couldn't figure it out. I appreciate it a lot if someone could explain it in some details or suggest some references on it. </p> http://mathoverflow.net/questions/125691/reference-request-about-fact-the-character-of-irreducible-representation-determin reference request about fact the character of irreducible representation determine the representation itself. unknown (google) 2013-03-27T03:38:24Z 2013-03-27T03:38:24Z <p>It is well known that if two (irreducible) admissible representations have the same characters, then they are isomorphic. To my knowledge, this is true for both Lie groups and p-adic groups.</p> <p>In the case of finite groups, this follows from the orthogonality relations of characters. I would like to know what are the main ingredients in the proof of its generalization in infinite dimensional case. In particular, is it simple if we assume both representations to be irreducible.</p> <p>I checked the books by Knapp, Wallach, but couldn't find any hint(I'm not an expert in this field, and not familiar with these books).

Suppose $\pi_i$ are irreducible generic unitary representation of $GL_{n}(\mathbb{R})$ with its associated Whittaker models $\mathcal{W}(\pi_i)$. Let $E_m$ be the space of homogeneous polynomials of degree $m$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$, then $GL_n(\mathbb{R})$ acts on this space via $(g.P)(x)=P(x.g)$, where $x.g$ denotes $g$ acts on $x$ from the right.

Fix a continuous character $\chi$ of $\mathbb{R}^*$ with the form $\chi(x)=sign(x)|x|^t$ for some complex number $t$. If $\phi$ is a Schwartz function on $\mathbb{R}$, let $s$ be a complex variable.

Then Kirillov conjecture states that for any irreducible unitary representation of $G$, its restriction to $P$ remains irreducible. This conjecture has been proved (not only over $\mathbb{R}$, but also over $\mathbb{C}$ and p-adic fields). Here I'm wondering if we consider irreducible smooth representations in Hilbert space(or Banach, Frechet space), does this conjecture remains true?</p> <p>Another related question is generally, how to prove the irreducibility for a smooth representation besides the definition? </p> http://mathoverflow.net/questions/19082/missing-lie-algebra-action-on-vectors-in-p-adic-case missing Lie algebra action on vectors in p-adic case? unknown (google) 2010-03-23T03:23:52Z 2010-03-24T00:03:27Z <p>Suppose $(\pi, V)$ is a continuous representation of a real reductive group $G$, then the Lie algebra of $G$ act on the smooth vectors of $V$, and the $(g,K)$-modules are built from here.</p> <p>It seems that we don't discuss the Lie algebra action on the representation space in p-adic group case.

The first n-terms in Taylor expansion? http://mathoverflow.net/questions/117252/a-question-about-the-proof-of-analytic-continuation-of-eisenstein-series-for-gl2 Comment by 2012-12-28T05:26:37Z 2012-12-28T05:26:37Z I don't think it is a misprint, if you look at the bottom of page 31. http://mathoverflow.net/questions/117252/a-question-about-the-proof-of-analytic-continuation-of-eisenstein-series-for-gl2 Comment by 2012-12-27T12:42:53Z 2012-12-27T12:42:53Z Thanks, and I understand your comment. But I'm still confused how to apply theorem 1.3.4 in Kubota's book? http://mathoverflow.net/questions/109533/about-theorem-3-2-in-introduction-to-spectral-theory-of-automorphic-forms-by-iw/109606#109606 Comment by 2012-10-28T00:14:20Z 2012-10-28T00:14:20Z thank you very much! http://mathoverflow.net/questions/109533/about-theorem-3-2-in-introduction-to-spectral-theory-of-automorphic-forms-by-iw/109606#109606 Comment by 2012-10-27T15:55:04Z 2012-10-27T15:55:04Z Thanks a lot for your explanation.Now if I'm interested in the cusp forms and Eisenstein series on full modular group, what are the better estimates for Hecke eigenforms? Any reference or answer is appreciated! http://mathoverflow.net/questions/85743/a-convergence-problem-about-integral-operator-in-the-space-of-representations Comment by 2012-01-20T17:51:43Z 2012-01-20T17:51:43Z GH:Thanks a lot. http://mathoverflow.net/questions/85743/a-convergence-problem-about-integral-operator-in-the-space-of-representations Comment by 2012-01-16T12:00:38Z 2012-01-16T12:00:38Z Alain: Of course we can always add zero seminorm. And the question I asked is that among all the seminors there, trivial or nontrivial, can we just pick up one particular one , and check the condition for it, then conclude that $\pi(f)v$ exists in $V$? Or we need to check the condition for all seminorms? http://mathoverflow.net/questions/85743/a-convergence-problem-about-integral-operator-in-the-space-of-representations Comment by 2012-01-16T11:57:05Z 2012-01-16T11:57:05Z Alain: Thanks for your comment. It should be $\pi(f)v$ converges to a vector in V for any $v\in V$. Sorry for the confusion. http://mathoverflow.net/questions/85743/a-convergence-problem-about-integral-operator-in-the-space-of-representations/85778#85778 Comment by 2012-01-16T02:33:38Z 2012-01-16T02:33:38Z Thanks a lot. So it looks like the question for the particular case when $\pi$ is from a unitary representation I asked is fine. http://mathoverflow.net/questions/85743/a-convergence-problem-about-integral-operator-in-the-space-of-representations/85778#85778 Comment by 2012-01-16T00:57:44Z 2012-01-16T00:57:44Z Thanks. But it seems in that theorem it requires f to be compactly-supported... http://mathoverflow.net/questions/85743/a-convergence-problem-about-integral-operator-in-the-space-of-representations Comment by 2012-01-15T17:43:36Z 2012-01-15T17:43:36Z Thanks for your comment. Here I'm more interested in if $\pi(f)$ converges to certain vector in $V$. Do we need the continuity prior to this question?
