AbstractIn this paper one more canonical method to construct the irreducible unitary representations of a connected, simply connected nilpotent Lie group is introduced. Although we used Kirillov' analysis to deduce this procedure, the method obtained differs from that of Kirillov's, in that one does not need to consider the codjoint representation of the group in the dual of its Lie algebra (in fact, neither does one need to consider the Lie algebra of the group, provided one knows certain connected subgroups and their characters). The method also differs from that of Mackey's as one only needs to induce characters to obtain all irreducible representations of the group.

Hardy’s uncertainty principle for the Gabor transform is proved for locally compact abelian groups having noncompact identity component and groups of the form$\mathbb{R}^{n}\times K$, where$K$is a compact group having irreducible representations of bounded dimension. We also show that Hardy’s theorem fails for a connected nilpotent Lie group$G$which admits a square integrable irreducible representation. Further, a similar conclusion is made for groups of the form$G\times D$, where$D$is a discrete group.

Let G be a connected, simply connected nilpotent Lie group, H and K be connected subgroups of G. We show in this paper that the action of K on X = G/H is proper if and only if the triple (G,H,K) has the compact intersection property in both cases where G is at most three-step and where G is special, extending then earlier cases. The result is also proved for exponential homogeneous space on which acts a maximal subgroup.

AbstractIn this paper we give an explicit formula for the flag curvature of homogeneous Randers spaces of Douglas type and apply this formula to obtain some interesting results. We first deduce an explicit formula for the flag curvature of an arbitrary left invariant Randersmetric on a two-step nilpotent Lie group. Then we obtain a classification of negatively curved homogeneous Randers spaces of Douglas type. This results, in particular, in many examples of homogeneous non-Riemannian Finsler spaces with negative flag curvature. Finally, we prove a rigidity result that a homogeneous Randers space of Berwald type whose flag curvature is everywhere nonzero must be Riemannian.

SupposeGis a connected, complex, nilpotent Lie group and Γ is a discrete subgroup ofGsuch thatG/Γ is Kähler and the top nonvanishing homology group ofG/Γ (with coefficients in ℤ2) is in codimension two or less. We show thatGis then Abelian. We also note that an example from [12] shows that this fails if the top nonvanishing homology is in codimension three.
