For all the convolution algebras $L^1[0,1),\ L^1_{\text{loc}}$ and $A(\omega)=\bigcap_n L^1(\omega_n)$, the derivations are of the form $D_{\mu} f=Xf*\mu$ for suitable measures $\mu$, where $(Xf)(t)=tf(t)$. We describe the (weakly) compact…

For a non-compact simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ over $\mathbb{R}$, we denote by $\mathcal{O}^{\mathbb{C}}_{\min,\mathfrak{g}}$ the unique complex nilpotent orbit in $\mathfrak{g} \otimes_\mathbb{R} \mathbb{C}$ containing all minimal…

If G is a Lie group, let D(G) be the space of compactly supported smooth functions on G. Consider the bilinear map B : D(G) x D(G) -> D(G), (f,g) |-> f*g which takes a pair of test functions to their convolution. We show that B is…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a real finite-dimensional Lie algebra equipped with a symmetric bilinear form $\langle\cdot,\cdot\rangle$. We assume that $\langle\cdot,\cdot\rangle $ is nil-invariant. This means that every nilpotent operator in the…
