Eigenspaces and covering relations of twisted involutions
Let $\theta:G\to G$ be an involution of a complex connected reductive Lie group, preserving a maximal torus $T$ (which, for me, lies inside a $\theta$-invariant Borel $B$). Let $K = G^\theta$ be the ...

Spherical functions in the space of functions on real Grassmannians
Let $G=O(n)$ be the orthogonal group. Let $K=S(O(k)\times O(n-k))$ be the subgroup of $O(n)$.
Then the pair $(G,K)$ is symmetric, and the homomogeneous space $G/K$ is the Grassmannian of $k$-...

Restriction of discrete series
QUESTION
Let $G$ be a simple Lie group with equal rank; namely, the rank of $G$ equals the rank of its maximal compact subgroup. Suppose that $G'$ is a reductive subgroup of $G$ with equal rank. If $\...

Relation between two Harish-Chandra homomorphisms
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a Lie algebra admitting a triangular decomposition $\frak g = N^-\oplus h\oplus N^+$ and $\gamma$ the classic Harish-Chandra isomorphism defined on the center $\frak Z$ of the ...

The convention of Fourier transform on symmetric spaces
When trying to understand the Plancherel formula of reductive symmetric space of Harish-Chandra class, I get confused on the convention of Fourier and related transforms.
$\newcommand{\H}{\mathcal{H}}

Representation theoretic characterisation of symmetric spaces
Let $G$ be a simple compact Lie group and $H$ a closed subgroup.
Let $\mathfrak{h}\subset \mathfrak{g}$ denote the corresponding Lie algebras. Let $\mathfrak{m}$ be an orthogonal complement to $\...

Restriction that contains a trivial representation
Let $G$ be a noncompact simple Lie group, and $G'$ a noncompact reductive subgroup of $G$ such that $(G,G')$ is a symmetric pair. If $\pi$ is an infinitely dimensional unitary representation of $G$, ...

Finding density of Haar measure relative to the Liouville volume measure on $\frac{G^{\mathbb{C}}}{P}$
Let $G$ be a connected compact Lie group and $G^{\mathbb{C}}$ be the complexification of the Lie group $G$ then we know that by polar decomposition we can write $G^{\mathbb{C}}\cong G\times \mathfrak{...

Multiplicative invariants of non-reduced root systems
It is a well known fact (cf. [1] VI.3.4 Thm. 1) that if $\Phi$ is a (reduced) root system with weight lattice $P$ and $W$ is the Weyl group of this root system, then the algebra of invariant ...

Harmonic analysis of vector bundles on symmetric spaces
This is a follow-up to my previous question.
Given a semisimple symmetric space $M\simeq G/H$, in particular, the real hyperbolic space $H_{p,q}\simeq SO(p,q)/SO(p,q-1)$, and a vector bundle $E$ over $...

$\tau$-admissible lift
I've been asked to take on a peer-review task which has to be completed in a short time, obviously details have to remain confidential, I need to work out what ``$\tau$-admissible lift" means if $...
