Recursive algebraic construction of two infinite families of polynomials innvariables is proposed as a uniform method applicable to every semisimple Lie group of rankn. Its result recognizes Chebyshev polynomials of the first and second kind as the special case of the simple group of typeA1. The obtained not Laurent-type polynomials are equivalent to the partial cases of the Macdonald symmetric polynomials. Recurrence relations are shown for the Lie groups of typesA1,A2,A3,C2,C3,G2, andB3together with lowest polynomials.

AbstractGiven a connected Lie group G acting ergodically on a space S with finite invariant measure, one can ask when G will contain single elements (or one-parameter subgroups) that still act ergodically. For a compact simple group or the isometry group of the plane, or any group projecting onto such groups, an ergodic action may have no ergodic elements, but for any other connected Lie group ergodic elements will exist. The proof uses the unitary representation theory of Lie groups and Lie group structure theory.

AbstractIn the first part of this paper generalizationsof Hesselink’s q-analog of Kostant’smultiplicity formula for the action of a semisimple Lie group on the polynomials on its Lie algebra are given in the context of the Kostant-Rallis theorem. They correspond to the cases of real semisimple Lie groups with one conjugacy class of Cartan subgroup. In the second part of the paper a q-analog of the Kostant-Rallis theorem is given for the real group SL(4, ) (that is SO(4) acting on symmetric 4 × 4 matrices). This example plays two roles. First it contrasts with the examples of the first part. Second it has implications to the study of entanglement of mixed 2 qubit states in quantum computation.

Let ϕt be a Lévy process in a semisimple Lie group G of noncompact type regarded as a stochastic flow on a homogeneous space of G, called a G-flow. We will determine the Lyapunov exponents and the stable manifolds of ϕt, and the stationary points of an associated vector field. As examples, SL (d,R)-flows and SO (1,d)-flows on SO (d) and Sd - 1 are discussed in details.

There exists the wonderful integral transform on complex semisimple Lie groups, which assigns to a function on the group the set of its integrals over "generalized horospheres" — some specific submanifolds of the Lie group. The local inversion formula for this integral transform, discovered in 50's for [Formula: see text] by Gel'fand and Graev, made it possible to decompose the regular representation on [Formula: see text] into irreducible ones. In case of real semisimple Lie group the situation becomes more complicated, and usually there is no reasonable analogous integral transform at all. Nevertheless, in the present paper we succeed to define the integral transforms on the Lorentz group and some other real semisimple Lie groups, which are in a sense analogous to the integration over "horospheres". We obtain the inversion formulas for these integral transforms.

Let G be a noncompact linear semisimple Lie group. Fix G = KAN an Iwasawa decomposition of G. That is, K is a maximal compact subgroup of G, A is a vector subgroup with AdA consisting of semisimple transformations and A normalizes N, a simply connected nilpotent subgroup of G.

AbstractIf G is a compact connected Lie group every infinite subset of Ĝ contains an infinite central Λ(p) set, for p < 2 + 2 rank G/(dim G - rank G). A subset R of Ĝ is of type central Λ(2) if and only if the associated set of characters on the maximal torus is of type Λ(2). The dual of a compact connected semisimple Lie group contains infinite sets which are central p-Sidon for all p > 1. Every infinite subset of the dual of Su(2) contains such a set.

Montgomery and Zippin saied that a group is approximated by Lie groups if every neighborhood of the identity contains an invariant subgroupHsuch thatG/His topologically isomorphic to a Lie group. Bagley, Wu, and Yang gave a similar definition, which they called a pro-Lie group. Covington extended this concept to a protopological group. Covington showed that protopological groups possess many of the characteristics of topological groups. In particular, Covington showed that in a special case, the product of protopological groups is a protopological group. In this note, we give a characterization theorem for protopological groups and use it to generalize her result about products to the category of all protopological groups.

AbstractLet G be a second countable locally compact group possessing a normal subgroup N with G/N abelian. We prove that if G/N is discrete then G has T1 primitive ideal space if and only if the G-quasiorbits in Prim N are closed. This condition on G-quasiorbits arose in Pukanzky's work on connected and simply connected solvable Lie groups where it is equivalent to the condition of Auslander and Moore that G be type R on N (-nilradical). Using an abstract version of Pukanzky's arguments due to Green and Pedersen we establish that if G is a connected and simply connected Lie group then Prim G is T1 whenever G-quasiorbits in [G, G] are closed.
