  1. A duality for the double fibration transform.

    Authors: Joseph A. Wolf, Michael G. Eastwood
    Subjects: Representation Theory
    Abstract

    We establish a duality within the spectral sequence that governs the
    holomorphic double fibration transform. It has immediate application to the
    questions of injectivity and range characterization for this transform. We
    discuss some key examples and an improved duality that holds in the Hermitian
    holomorphic case.

  2. Pseudo-Riemannian Weakly Symmetric Manifolds.

    Abstract

    There is a well developed theory of weakly symmetric Riemannian manifolds.
    Here it is shown that several results in the Riemannian case are also valid for
    weakly symmetric pseudo-Riemannian manifolds, but some require additional
    hypotheses. The topics discussed are homogeneity, geodesic completeness, the
    geodesic orbit property, weak symmetries, and the structure of the nilradical
    of the isometry group.

  3. Branching of Representations to Symmetric Subgroups.

    Authors: Joseph A. Wolf, Michael G. Eastwood
    Subjects: Representation Theory
    Abstract

    Let $\gg$ be the Lie algebra of a compact Lie group and let $\theta$ be any
    automorphism of $\gg$. Let $\gk$ denote the fixed point subalgebra
    $\gg^\theta$. In this paper we present LiE programs that, for any finite
    dimensional complex representation $\pi$ of $\gg$, give the explicit branching
    $\pi|_\gk$ of $\pi$ on $\gk$.

  4. Infinite Dimensional Multiplicity Free Spaces III: Matrix Coefficients and Regular Functions.

    Authors: Joseph A. Wolf
    Subjects: Representation Theory
    Abstract

    In earlier papers we studied direct limits $(G,K) = \varinjlim (G_n,K_n)$ of
    two types of Gelfand pairs. The first type was that in which the $G_n/K_n$ are
    compact Riemannian symmetric spaces. The second type was that in which $G_n =
    N_n\rtimes K_n$ with $N_n$ nilpotent, in other words pairs $(G_n,K_n)$ for
    which $G_n/K_n$ is a commutative nilmanifold.
