Starting with the zero-square "zeon algebra," the regular representation gives rise to a Boolean lattice representation of sl(2). We detail the su(2) content of the Boolean lattice, providing the irreducible representations carried by the algebra generated by the subsets of an n-set. The group elements are found, exhibiting the "special functions" in this context. The corresponding Leibniz rule and group law are shown. Krawtchouk polynomials, the Hamming and the Johnson schemes appear naturally. Applications to the Boolean poset and the structure of Hadamard–Sylvester matrices are shown as well.

In the present paper author derive a number of integrals concerning various special functions which are applications of the one of Osler result. Osler provided extensions to the familiar Leibniz rule for the nth derivative of product of two functions.

In this paper, both the structure and the theory of representations of finite groupoids are discussed. A finite connected groupoid turns out to be an extension of the groupoids of pairs of its set of units by its canonical totally disconnected isotropy subgroupoid. An extension of Maschke’s theorem for groups is proved showing that the algebra of a finite groupoid is semisimple and all finite-dimensional linear representations of finite groupoids are completely reducible. The theory of characters for finite-dimensional representations of finite groupoids is developed and it is shown that irreducible representations of the groupoid are in one-to-one correspondence with irreducible representation of its isotropy groups, with an extension of Burnside’s theorem describing the decomposition of the regular representation of a finite groupoid. Some simple examples illustrating these results are exhibited with emphasis on the groupoids interpretation of Schwinger’s description of quantum mechanical systems.

Let Hn be the (2n + 1)-dimensional Heisenberg group. We decompose L2(Hn) as the closure of a direct sum of infinitely many left translation invariant eigenspaces (for certain systems of partial differential equations). The restriction of the left regular representation to each one of these eigenspaces disintegrates into a direct integral of unitary irreducible representations, such that each infinite dimensional unitary irreducible representation appears with multiplicity 0 or 1 in this disintegration.

We study the following question: given a locally compact group when does its Fourier algebra coincide with the subalgebra of the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra consisting of functions vanishing at infinity? We provide sufficient conditions for this to be the case.As an application, we show that when $P$ is the minimal parabolic subgroup in one of the classical simple Lie groups of real rank one or the exceptional such group, then the Fourier algebra of $P$ coincides with the subalgebra of the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra of $P$ consisting of functions vanishing at infinity. In particular, the regular representation of $P$ decomposes as a direct sum of irreducible representations although $P$ is not compact.

Different generators of a deformed oscillator algebra give rise to one-parameter families of q-exponential functions and q-Hermite polynomials. Connections of the Stieltjes and Hamburger classical moment problem with the corresponding resolution of unity are also pointed out.

Weyl group orbit functions are defined in the context of Weyl groups of simple Lie algebras. They are multivariable complex functions possessing remarkable properties such as (anti)invariance with respect to the corresponding Weyl group, continuous and discrete orthogonality. A crucial tool in their definition are so-called sign homomorphisms, which coincide with one-dimensional irreducible representations. In this work we generalize the definition of orbit functions using characters of irreducible representations of higher dimensions. We describe their properties and give examples for Weyl groups of rank 2 and 3.

Let X be the set of all natural numbers and let be the group of all finite permutations of X. The group equipped with the discrete topology, is called the infinite symmetric group. It was discussed in F. J. Murray and J. von Neumann as a concrete example of an ICC-group, which is a discrete group with infinite conjugacy classes. It is proved that the regular representation of an ICC-group is a factor representation of type II1. The infinite symmetric group is, therefore, a group not of type I. This may be the reason why its unitary representations have not been investigated satisfactorily. In fact, only few results are known. For instance, all indecomposable central positive definite functions on , which are related to factor representations of type IIl, were given by E. Thoma. Later on, A. M. Vershik and S. V. Kerov obtained the same result by a different method in and gave a realization of the representations of type II1 in. Concerning irreducible representations, A. Lieberman and G. I. Ol’shanskii obtained a characterization of a certain family of countably many irreducible representations by introducing a particular topology in However, irreducible representations have been studied not so actively as factor representations.

The theorems relating to the fractional derivatives for the multivariable H-function [1,15,17] and a general class of multivariable polynomials [13] have been established in this paper. Use of well known generalized Leibniz rule has been made to derive some theorems. Certain special cases of the main theorems have also been discussed.
