چکیده

One of the central problems in representation theory is understanding irreducible unitary representations. The reason is that in many applications of linear algebra (like those of representation theory to harmonic analysis) the notion of length of vectors is fundamentally important. Unitary representations are exactly those preserving a good notion of length. The paper [4] provides an algorithm for calculating the irreducible unitary representations of a real reductive Lie group. The purpose of this paper is to address a problem arising in the implementation of this algorithm. In order to explain the problem, we need to describe briefly (or at least more briefly than [4]) the nature of the algorithm. In order to minimize technicalities, we will provide in the introduction complete details only for finite-dimensional representations. For a real reductive Lie group, the theory of Harish-Chandra modules provides a complete way to deal with the complications attached to infinite-dimensional representations. To study unitary representations it is natural to study the larger class of representations with invariant Hermitian forms. Here is the underlying formalism.

On tensor product $L$-functions and Langlands functoriality

‎In the spirit of the Langlands proposal on  Beyond Endoscopy ‎we discuss the explicit relation between the Langlands functorial transfers and automorphic $L$-functions‎. ‎It is well-known that the poles of the $L$-functions have deep impact to the Langlands functoriality‎. ‎Our discussion also‎ ‎includes the meaning of the central value of the tensor product $L$-functions in terms of the Langl...

Ramond Twisted Representations

We study the Ramond twisted representations of the affine W algebra W(ḡ, f) in the case that f is Richardson. We establish the vanishing and the almost irreducibility of the corresponding BRST cohomology. This confirms some of the recent conjectures of Kac and Wakimoto [KW5]. In type A, our results give the characters of all irreducible ordinary Ramond twisted representations of W(sln, f) for a...

2 7 Se p 20 09 Representations of twisted q - Yangians by Lucy Gow and

The twisted q-Yangians are coideal subalgebras of the quantum affine algebra associated with glN . We prove a classification theorem for finite-dimensional irreducible representations of the twisted q-Yangians associated with the symplectic Lie algebras sp2n. The representations are parameterized by their highest weights or by their Drinfeld polynomials. In the simplest case of sp2 we give an e...
