Irreducible Unitary Representations

Let G be a group and ρ and σ two irreducible unitary representations of G in complex Hilbert spaces and assume that dimp ρ= n < ∞. D. Poguntke [2] proved that is a sum of at most n2 irreducible subrepresentations. The case when dim a is also finite he attributed to R. Howe.We shall prove analogous results for arbitrary finite-dimensional representations, not necessarily unitary. Thus let F be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We shall use the language of modules and we postulate that allour modules are finite-dimensional as F-vector spaces. The field F itself will be considered as a trivial G-module.

The One

Various properties of two kinds of massless representations of the n-conformal (or (n+1)-De Sitter) group [Formula: see text] are investigated for n≥2. It is found that, for space-time dimensions n≥3, the situation is quite similar to the one of the n=4 case for Sn-massless representations of the n-De Sitter group [Formula: see text]. These representations are the restrictions of the singletons of [Formula: see text]. The main difference is that they are not contained in the tensor product of two UIRs with the same sign of energy when n>4, whereas it is the case for another kind of massless representations. Finally some examples of Gupta–Bleuler triplets are given for arbitrary spin and n≥3.

Irreducible Unitary Representations

We classify irreducible unitary representations of the group of all infinite matrices over a p p -adic field ( p ≠ 2 p\ne 2 ) with integer elements equipped with a natural topology. Any irreducible representation passes through a group G L GL of infinite matrices over a residue ring modulo p k p^k . Irreducible representations of the latter group are induced from finite-dimensional representations of certain open subgroups.

Kirillov Dimension

Kazhdan, Kostant, Binegar–Zierau and Kobayashi–Ørsted constructed a distinguished infinite-dimensional irreducible unitary representation π of the indefinite orthogonal group G = O(2p, 2q) for p, q ≥ 1 with p + q > 2, which has the smallest Gelfand–Kirillov dimension 2p + 2q - 3 among all infinite-dimensional irreducible unitary representations of G and hence is called the minimal representation. We consider, for which subgroup G′ of G, the restriction π|G′ is multiplicity-free. We prove that the restriction of π to any subgroup containing the direct product group U(p1) × U(p2) × U(q) for p1, p2 ≥ 1 with p1 + p2 = p is multiplicity-free, whereas the restriction to U(p1) × U(p2) × U(q1) × U(q2) for q1, q2 ≥ 1 with q1 + q2 = q has infinite multiplicities.

Gauge Theory Of Gravity

A novel Chern–Simons E8 gauge theory of gravity in D = 15 based on an octicE8 invariant expression in D = 16 (recently constructed by Cederwall and Palmkvist) is developed. A grand unification model of gravity with the other forces is very plausible within the framework of a supersymmetric extension (to incorporate spacetime fermions) of this Chern–Simons E8 gauge theory. We review the construction showing why the ordinary 11D Chern–Simons gravity theory (based on the Anti de Sitter group) can be embedded into a Clifford-algebra valued gauge theory and that an E8 Yang–Mills field theory is a small sector of a Clifford (16) algebra gauge theory. An E8 gauge bundle formulation was instrumental in understanding the topological part of the 11-dim M-theory partition function. The nature of this 11-dim E8 gauge theory remains unknown. We hope that the Chern–Simons E8 gauge theory of gravity in D = 15 advanced in this work may shed some light into solving this problem after a dimensional reduction.
