What are the finite-dimensional irreducible unitary representations of $E(3)$?
Let $E(3)$ be the Euclidean group of $\mathbb{R}^3$ defined, e.g., by
$$E(3)=SO(3)\ltimes T(3)$$
where $T(3)$ is the translation group.
I am looking for a reference classifying all the finite-...

K-type in discrete series representation
The following result seems well known.
Let $G$ be a reductive Lie group with a maximal compact subgroup $K$. If $\mu$ is an irreducible unitary representation of $K$, then there exist only finitely ...

Fourier transform in the complex motion group
I am looking for a reference that deals with the unitary dual of the complex motion group $\mathbb C^2 \rtimes SU(2)$ i.e., the semi-direct product of $\mathbb C^2$ with the special unitary group $K=...

Restriction of irreducible unitary representation to normal subgroup of finite index
Let $G$ be a Lie group (or more generally a locally compact group), let $N$ be a closed and normal subgroup of $G$ of finite index. Let $H$ be an infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space, and let $\...

Is anything known about the eigenspectrum of the regular representation of the permutation group?
I am looking for information like upper bounds on how many times any eigenvalue can occur or something like how many eigenvalues can be there in some given range. Is anything like this known?
The ...

comprehensive presentation of the unitary dual of $SO_0(n,1)$
The unitary dual (unitary irreducible represenations) is determined for every connected noncompact semisimple Lie group of real rank one. I would like to have a reference for the particular case $SO_0(...

Positive definite functions on G from Hilbert space vectors?
Let $G$ be a countable discrete group. Given a vector $\xi \in l^{2}(G)$, is there any way to naturally construct a positive definite function on $G$ using $\xi$?
This question is rather vague and ...

decomposition into irreducible unitary representations: references for explicit formulas?
I'm looking for references of the decomposition of $L^2(\Gamma\backslash G)$, where $G$ is a connected Lie group, and $\Gamma\subset G$ a discrete lattice; for simplicity one may assume that $G$ is ...
