  Representation of a Lie group - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A great deal is known about such representations, a basic tool in their study being the use of the corresponding 'infinitesimal' representations of Lie algebras (indeed in the physics literature the distinction is often elided).
A representation of a Lie group G on a finite-dimensional complex vector space V is a smooth group homomorphism Ψ:G→Aut(V) from G to the automorphism group of V.
A representation of a Lie group G on a complex Hilbert space V is a group homomorphism Ψ:G → B(V) from G to B(V), the group of bounded linear operators of V which have a bounded inverse, such that the map G x V → V given by (g,v) → Ψ(g) v is continuous.

 Representations
Suppose G is a split group of Lie type defined over the field k and r is the least common multiple of the nonzero abelian-group invariants of the coisogeny group of G (see Section Isogeny).
This happens when r=1, i.e., the group is semisimple and simply connected, or the group is not semisimple but the coisogeny group is torsion free (e.g., the general linear group).

The structure of compact Lie groups is analyzed in terms of the action of the group on itself by conjugation.
Culminates in the classification of the representations of compact Lie groups and in their relation as sections of holomorphic line bundles over flag manifolds.
Of particular originality is the theory of orbits for compact groups, an issue with many applications such as the patterns of symmetry breaking in elementary particle physics.

In recent years new and important connections have emerged between discrete subgroups of Lie groups, automorphic forms and arithmetic on the one hand, and questions in discrete mathematics, combinatorics, and graph theory on the other.
A new combinatorial construction of expander graphs was used recently to resolve a group theoretic question on expansion in Cayley graphs.
People working in one side of the Lie Group/Discrete Math dichotomy are often not aware of the relevance of their work to the other side.

 Lie Groups   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-05)
A Lie group (sometimes called a continuous group) is a group on which a structure of differentiable manifold has been defined, such that the two structures are compatible.
During the 20th century Lie groups and their representations have found connections with many other branches of mathematics e.g.

This culminates in the description of all irreducible unitary representation of the general linear groups.
For other groups, one expects to need a new construction, giving "unipotent representations." The latter half of the book explains the evidence for that expectation and suggests a partial definition of unipotent representations.

Hence, it is possible to attach geometric invariants, like the support and the characteristic variety, to representations of Lie groups.
The problem is then to describe the spherical representations among all irreducible ones, and to compute their multiplicities.
Using microlocalization of representations, the author derives a criterion for irreducibility.

 2004 Summer Research Conference on Representations of Algebraic Groups, Quantum Groups, and Lie Algebras
These subjects are very closely related to finite-dimensional representations of affine Hecke algebras, affine quantum groups, Nakajima's quiver varieties, and the structure of Hall algebras.
In addition, the conference will feature talks on the K-theoretic and geometric approaches towards the understanding of the (nonrestricted) modular representations of Lie algebras and of algebraic groups in positive characteristics.

 AMCA: Geometry and smooth representations of reductive Lie groups by Dragan Milicic   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-05)
The standard way of studying representations of reductive Lie groups is to study the corresponding category of Harish-Chandra modules.
A feature of this approach, which is sometimes unpleasant, is that Harish-Chandra modules do not admit an action of the reductive Lie group G itself (in fact, they are modules for the action of the enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra of the group G and the action of its maximal compact subgroup K).
Casselman and Wallach defined a category of ``smooth representations of moderate growth and finite length'' of G and constructed a ``completion'' functor from the category of Harish-Chandra modules into this category.

The bounded cohomological, the dynamical and the algebro-geometric approach relate the geometry of flag varieties at the boundary of symmetric spaces to the dynamics of surface group actions.
This has led to a geometric understanding of surface group actions in certain components of the moduli space of representations.
For split groups, Hitchin found components containing Teichmuller space which are homemorphic to cells, whereas for groups of Hermitian type, there are components of maximal characteristic number (Toledo invariant) comprising certain equivalence classes of discrete Zariski-dense embeddings.

There are two, related parts to this thesis: one on representations of Lie semi-groups and one on operators associated to representations of Lie groups.
Examining again, after forty years, the verification of the basic estimates of the second part, I found a large number of misprints, so that it would have been difficult if not impossible to follow my arguments line by line.
