Seminars for the week of November 1, 2010
Colloquium
Thursday, 3:35, in VinH 16Professor Jeff Adams
of University of Maryland
will speak on
"Computing the Unitary Dual" The problem of computing the set of irreducible unitary
representations of a Lie group goes back almost 100 years. The
answer is only known in a small set of cases, including GL(n,R).
While in principle there is a finite algorithm to compute the
unitary dual for a given group, it is not at all clear this can be
made explicit, not to mention implemented on a computer. The Atlas
of Lie Groups and Representations is a project to carry out this
computation, and to provide software for studying Lie groups and
their representations. I will give an overview of the project. The
project's web site is www.liegroups.org.
