Enright Shelton Theory And Vogans Problem For Generalized Principal Series

Download or read book Enright-Shelton Theory and Vogan's Problem for Generalized Principal Series written by Brian D. Boe and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1993 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the composition series of generalized principal series representations induced from a maximal cuspidal parabolic subgroup of a real reductive Lie group. Boe and Collingwood study when such representations are multiplicity-free (Vogan's Problem #3) and the problem of describing their composition factors in closed form. The results obtained are strikingly similar to those of Enright and Shelton for highest weight modules. Connections with two different flag variety decompositions are discussed.
