Block-diagonal embedding of $U(n)$ into $U(mn)$

What is known about the subgroup $U(n)\subset U(mn)$ for $m,n\in\mathbb{N}$ given by the diagonal embedding $$ \alpha\mapsto \text{diag}(\alpha,\cdots, \alpha),$$ for $\alpha$ appearing $m$ times? For ...

Groups of operators between local unitaries and full unitaries

Consider the group $U(d_1) \otimes U(d_2)$ of "local unitary" operators acting on the complex space $\mathbb{C}^{d_1} \otimes \mathbb{C}^{d_2}$ (i.e., $U(d_1) \otimes U(d_2)$ is the group of unitary ...

Which orbits of a separable representation of the infinite unitary group are closed?

Consider a separable irreducible unitary representation of $U(\mathcal{H})$ in the Hilbert space $V$. Assume that $\mathcal{H}$ is separable. My question is the following: Is it true that all ...
