Title: On Hardy's theorem on SU(1,1)
Abstract:
[pdf]
The classical Hardy theorem asserts that f and its Fourier transform \hat f can not be very rapidly decreasing. This theorem was generalized on Lie groups by various people, and also for the Fourier-Jacobi transform. Especially, the heat kernel plays an essential role, which is a "good" function in the sense that f and a generalised Fourier transform both have good decay. However, on SU(1,1) there are infinitely many "good" functions. In this talk, we shall consider a characterization of "good" functions on SU(1,1).

Title: The Embedding of Discrete Series Representations of Facial Subgroups
Abstract:
[pdf]
Consider a Hermitian symmetric domain B with connected automorphism group G. The boundary of the convex domain B decomposes into lower-rank Hermitian symmetric spaces \bar B with connected automorphism groups \bar GG. It is natural to ask for embeddings of discrete series representations (or more general irreducible unitary representations) of \bar G into corresponding representations of G. If B is an irreducible classical domain, we exhibit an explicit unitary embedding of all discrete series representations of \bar G (holomorphic or non-holomorphic), such that the highest weight vectors of the lowest K-types correspond. The construction uses Knapp-Wallach's Szegö operators, and can be extended to all representations in the support of the Plancherel measure of \bar G.

Title: Geometry of Orbits and the Plancherel Decomposition
Abstract:
[pdf]
For a class of affine symmetric spaces G/H, we construct a tube domain whose Silov boundary S allows for a G-equivariant identification of the associated L2-spaces. The adjoint orbits of H in the tangent space of G/H are realized as open orbits in the abelian group S, and we associate natural unitary representations to these orbits. In the rank one case we thus obtain the Plancherel decomposition. Furthermore the orthogonal projection onto 'the most continuous part' may be described by the (un-normalized) orbital integral associated to the Cartan subspace with noncompact centralizer group in H.

Title: Characterization of discrete Riesz transforms
Abstract:
[pdf]
The Riesz transforms in Rn have been characterized to be the only translation invariant linear operators satisfying some condtion of relative invariance under the conformal group CO(n,R). The purpose of this talk is to investigate to what extent the corresponding statement is true for their discrete analogues. It turns out that it does not always hold.

Title: Kontsevich Quantization and Duflo Isomorphism
Abstract:
[pdf]
Since the fundamental results by Chevalley, Harish-Chandra and Dixmier one knows that the set of ad-invariant polynomials on the dual of a Lie algebra of a particular type (solvable, simple or nilpotent) is isomorphic, as an algebra, to the center of the enveloping algebra. This fact was generalized to an arbitrary finite-dimensional real Lie algebra by M. Duflo in late 70's. His proof is based on the Kirillov's orbits method that parametrizes infinitesimal characters of unitary irreducible representations of the corresponding Lie group in terms of co-adjoint orbits.

The Kontsevich' Formality theorem implies not only the existence of the Duflo map but shows that it is canonical. We shall describe this construction and indicate how does this construction extend to the whole Poisson cohomology of an arbitrary finite-dimensional real Lie algebra.

Title: Rankin-Cohen brackets and quantaziation of causal symmetric spaces
Abstract:
[pdf]
We consider semi-simple real Lie groups G such that the associated Riemannian symmetric space G/K is a Hermitian symmetric space of tube type and the non-Riemannian one G/H is a para-hermitian symmetric space. Such symmetric spaces are usually called causal symmetric spaces of Cayley type. The first requirement implies that the Lie group G has holomorphic discrete series representations acting on the space of square integrable holomorphic functions on G/K. The fact that G/H is para-hermitian, i.e. has a G-invariant splitting of the tangent bundle into two isomorphic sub-bundles, allows us to build up on G/H a symbolic calculus. It turns out that one can define a G-covariant symbolic calculus on G/H generalizing the so-called convolution first symbolic calculus on R2.

In the present talk we discuss two different ring structures on the set of holomorphic discrete series. First one comes from the convolution of functions on the symmetric cone underlying the Hermitian symmetric space of tube type G/K.

The second one is non-commutative and is induced by the composition of operators whose symbols belong to the discrete series representations of the causal symmetric space of Cayley type G/H.

We also discuss the relationship that exists between these ring structures, intertwining operators for tensor products of holomorphic discrete series representations and the so-called Rankin-Cohen brackets.

Title: Conformal geometry of curves
Abstract:
[pdf]
We study the space S(q,n) of (q+2)-dimensional vector subspaces of the (n+2)-dimensional Minkowski space which intersect the light cone transversely. It is a subset of an indefinite Grassmann manifold. This space can be identified with the space of q-spheres in Sn. I will explain the notion of a pencil, which is one-parameter family of codimension 1 spheres in Sk. Using pencils, I will give a pseudoorthonormal basis S(q,n).

The pseudo-Riemannian structure of S(q,n) allows us to give an interpretation of the "infinitesimal cross ratio", which is a complex valued 2-form on the two point configuraion space of a knot K, K × K-(diagonal): The real part of it can be interpreted as an area element of a surface in S(q,n).

Title: On unitary representations of rational dahas
Abstract:
[pdf]
The talk will be an attempt to show the importance of the analytic aspects of the rational dahas via the the simplest case. I will begin with discussing the eigenvalue problem for the Dunkl operator (one x), and then consider in full detail a simple example, that may be viewed as a starting point of the generaly theory of unitary representations of the rational dahas. This example is directly connected with the harmonic analysis on SL(2,R) and OSP(2|1); Dunkl operator is a square root of the radial part of the Laplace operator in this case, a kind of the Dirac operator.

Title: Integral geometry and representations
Abstract:
[pdf]
The old project of Gelfand was to obtain the harmonic analysis on symmetric and other homogeneous spaces using the horospherical transform. The realization of this program had an enormous obstruction since the initial version of the horospherical transform annulates discrete series of representations. Several years ago I suggested a modified version - horospherical Cauchy transform - which is nontrivial at least for some discrete series.

I want to consider several examples, starting of SL(2,R), and to discuss hoe realistic looks today this Gelfand's project.

Title: Holomorphic language for Cauchy-Riemann cohomology and representations
Abstract:
[pdf]
It turns out that in many explicit computations with \bar ∂-cohomlogy it is unconvenient to use by the traditional languages of Cech or Dolbeault. It was developped a conception of smoothly parameterized Cech cohomolgy, different versions of which were developpped in the collaboration with Eastwood and Wang. One of possibilities is to build a purely holomorphic language. I will give a review of constructions and several illustrating examples basically from theory of reprentations.

Title: A Characterization of symmetric Siegel domains by convexity of Cayley transform images
Abstract:
[pdf]
A homogeneous Siegel domain is a higher dimensional analogue of the right (or upper) half plane, and is mapped to a bounded domain by the Cayley transform. Among homogeneous Siegel domains, we have an important subclass consisting of symmetric ones, which we characterize in this talk using the parametrized family of Cayley transforms defined by Nomura. This family includes the Cayley transforms associated with the Bergman kernel and Szegö kernel, and if the domain is symmetric, (the inverse of) the Cayley transform introduced by Korányi and Wolf.

In this talk, we show that the Cayley transform image is convex if and only if the domain is symmetric and the parameter is a specific one so that the Cayley transform coincides with the Korányi-Wolf Cayley transform.

Title: Hecke Operators on Spaces of Period Functions
Abstract:
[pdf]
Period functions are the analog of period polynomials, wellknown in the theory of modular forms, for Maass cusp forms. Before they were considered in the context of Maass forms they came up in physicists work on the transfer operator of geodesic flows on hyperbolic surfaces. The structure of these operators suggested the existence of Hecke type operators on spaces of period functions. It turns out that the constructions given in the context of transfer operators can be related to the standard Hecke operators on Maass forms in a precise way.

Speaker: Hubert Rubenthaler (IRMA, Strasbourg)
Title: Local Zeta functions for a class of real symmetric spaces
Abstract:
[pdf]
Let G/H be a symmetric space which is embedded as an open set in R^n, let P be a polynomial invariant of the action of G on G/H and let \pi be a representation of G admitting a generalized H-invariant vector u. Then for f \in S(R^n) one can form the Zeta function:

Z(f,\pi,s)=\int_{G/H} f( . g) |P( . g)|^s \pi( .g) u d ( .g).

For a class of symmetric spaces we will make this definition precise in the case where \pi belongs to the spherical minimal series, and we will prove a functional equation.

Title: Shimura correspondences for split real groups
Abstract:
[pdf]
Suppose G is a split real reductive Lie group (like SL(2,R), for instance). Then G admits an essentially unique nonlinear two-fold double cover.

In the past few years, Barbasch and Barbasch-Ciubotaru have given a striking description of the spherical unitary dual of G. The point of this talk is to recall their results and then show how they can be used to give very precise information about the unitary dual of the double cover of G.

The relationship between unitary representations of G and its double cover is the Shimura correspondence of the title. This talk represents joint work with Jeffrey Adams, Dan Barbasch, Annegret Paul, and David Vogan.
