Let $G$ be a connected reductive linear algebraic group over a field $k$. Using ideas from geometric invariant theory, we study the notion of $G$-complete reducibility over $k$ for a Lie subalgebra $\mathfrak h$ of the Lie algebra…
Geometric quantization transforms a symplectic manifold with Lie group action to a unitary representation. In this article, we extend geometric quantization to the super setting. We consider real forms of contragredient Lie supergroups with…
Recently the correlation functions of the so-called Itzykson-Zuber/Harish-Chandra integrals were computed (by one of the authors and collaborators) for all classical groups using an integration formula that relates integrals over compact…
Let $G$ be a reductive group in the Harish-Chandra class e.g. a connected semisimple Lie group with finite center, or the group of real points of a connected reductive algebraic group defined over $\R$. Let $\sigma$ be an involution of the…
It is shown that the support of an irreducible weight module over the Schr\"{o}dinger-Virasoro Lie algebra with an infinite-dimensional weight space, coincides with the weight lattice and that all nontrivial weight spaces of such a module…
Let ${\mathfrak g}$ be a finite dimensional Lie algebra over a field of characteristic 0, with solvable radical ${\mathfrak r}$ and nilpotent radical ${\mathfrak n}=[{\mathfrak g},{\mathfrak r}]$. Given a finite dimensional ${\mathfrak…
This article is an exposition of the 1967 Annals paper by Parthasarathy, Ranga Rao, and Varadarajan, on irreducible admissible Harish-Chandra modules over complex semisimple Lie groups and Lie algebras. It was written in Winter 2012 to be…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$ of characteristic zero. Define the universal grading group $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{g})$ as having one generator $g_{\rho}$ for each irreducible…
We prove a general existence result for infinite-dimensional admissible (g;k)-modules, where g is a reductive finite-dimensional complex Lie algebra and k is a reductive in g algebraic subalgebra.
Mathematical physicists have studied degenerations of Lie groups and their representations, which they call contractions. In this paper we study these contractions, and also other families, within the framework of algebraic families of…
It is well-known that the Harish-Chandra transform, $f\mapsto\mathcal{H}f,$ is a topological isomorphism of the spherical (Schwartz) convolution algebra $\mathcal{C}^{p}(G//K)$ (where $K$ is a maximal compact subgroup of any arbitrarily…
In this paper, we classify all simple Harish-Chandra modules over the super affine-Virasoro algebra $\widehat{\mathcal{L}}=\mathcal{W}\ltimes(\mathfrak{g}\otimes \mathcal{A})\oplus \mathbb{C}C$, where $\mathcal{A}=\mathbb{C}[t^{\pm…
We develop the theory of a category ${\mathscr C}_A$ which is a generalisation to non-restricted ${\mathfrak g}$-modules of a category famously studied by Andersen, Jantzen and Soergel for restricted ${\mathfrak g}$-modules, where…
In this article we consider the centre of the reduced enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra of a reductive algebraic group in very good characteristic p > 2. The Harish-Chandra centre maps to the centre of each reduced enveloping algebra…
A well-known theorem of Mathieu's states that a Harish-chandra module over the Virasoro algebra is either a highest weight module, a lowest weight module or a module of the intermediate series. It is proved in this paper that an analogous…
The main subject of study of this paper are general properties of HarishChandra algebras and modules with respect wito a pair of algebra and subalgebra, with special focus on the transfer properties to a "spherical subalgebra". We also…
Let g be a semisimple complex Lie algebra and k in g be any algebraic subalgebra reductive in g. For any simple finite dimensional k-module V, we construct simple (g; k)-modules M with finite dimensional k-isotypic components such that V is…
Given an algebraic Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ over $\mathbb{C}$, we canonically associate to it a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}_{\infty}$ defined over $\mathbb{C}_{\infty}$-the reduction of $\mathbb{C}$ mod infinitely large prime, and show that…
In 1970, Gelfand posed the problem of classifying the indecomposable objects in a representation category equivalent to the principal block of Harish-Chandra modules for $\mathsf{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$; explicit solutions were obtained by…
We address two problems regarding the structure and representation theory of finite W-algebras associated with the general linear Lie algebras. Finite W-algebras can be defined either via the Whittaker model of Kostant or, equivalently, by…
