Harmonic Analysis in One-Parameter Metabelian Nilmanifolds

Let G be a connected, simply connected one-parameter metabelian nilpotent Lie group, that means, the corresponding Lie algebra has a one-codimensional abelian subalgebra. In this article we show that G contains a discrete cocompact subgroup. Given a discrete cocompact subgroup Γ of G, we define the...

Description
Summary:Let G be a connected, simply connected one-parameter metabelian nilpotent Lie group, that means, the corresponding Lie algebra has a one-codimensional abelian subalgebra. In this article we show that G contains a discrete cocompact subgroup. Given a discrete cocompact subgroup Γ of G, we define the quasi-regular representation τ=indΓG1 of G. The basic problem considered in this paper concerns the decomposition of τ into irreducibles. We give an orbital description of the spectrum, the multiplicity function and we construct an explicit intertwining operator between τ and its desintegration without considering multiplicities. Finally, unlike the Moore inductive algorithm for multiplicities on nilmanifolds, we carry out here a direct computation to get the multiplicity formula.
