Apr 1, 2010 at 5:51 | comment | added | Marty | I don't know the real case as well as I should. But relevant aspects are described well in a paper by Casselman, Hecht, and Milicic,"Bruhat filtrations and Whittaker vectors for real groups" in the smooth setting. You can find this paper easily online. In the unitary setting, you're right that B has measure zero, so it doesn't cut out any proper subspace or quotient of the Hilbert space $L^2(G/B, \chi)$ of the unitary principal series representation. | |
Apr 1, 2010 at 3:26 | comment | added | user1832 | Thanks, Marty. I think your explanation works perfectly in p-adic setting, but in real setting, if we consider smooth Frechet (or Banach) representation, the irreducible subspaces means closed ones, so it seems still possible that $V(BwB)$ is all of $V$. Another issue in unitary case, I think, is that $B$ has Haar mesaure zero, so the function supported on it is zero in L^2. | |
