Proposition 45.4. Suppose that \( \left( {G, H,\psi }\right) \) is a Gelfand triple, and let \( \left( {\pi, V}\right) \) be an irreducible representation of \( G \) . Then there exists at most one space \( \mathcal{M} \) of functions on \( G \) satisfying\n\n\[ M\left( {hg}\right) = \psi \left( h\right) M\left( g\righ...
Proof. This is just the Frobenius reciprocity. The space of functions satisfying (45.3) is \( {\operatorname{Ind}}_{H}^{G}\left( \psi \right) \), so \( \mathcal{M} \), if it exists, is the image of an element of \( {\operatorname{Hom}}_{G}\left( {V,{\operatorname{Ind}}_{H}^{G}\left( \psi \right) }\right) \) . This is o...

Theorem 45.3. Let \( H \) be a closed subgroup of the compact group \( G \) . Let \( \mathcal{H} \) be the subring of \( C\left( G\right) \) consisting of functions that are both left- and right-invariant under \( H \) .

Write the last column of \( g \) in the form\n\n\[ \left( \begin{matrix} b{v}_{1} \\ b{v}_{2} \\ \vdots \\ b{v}_{n} \\ a \end{matrix}\right) = \left( \begin{matrix} {bv} \\ a \end{matrix}\right) ,\;v = \left( \begin{matrix} {v}_{1} \\ \vdots \\ {v}_{n} \end{matrix}\right) \]\n\nwhere \( {b}^{...

Theorem 45.4. The subgroup \( \mathrm{{SO}}\left( n\right) \) of \( \mathrm{{SO}}\left( {n + 1}\right) \) is a Gelfand subgroup.
Proof. With \( G = \mathrm{{SO}}\left( {n + 1}\right), H = \mathrm{{SO}}\left( n\right) \), and \( K = \mathrm{{SO}}\left( 2\right) \) embedded as explained above, we exhibit an involution of \( G \), namely\n\n\[ g \mapsto \left( \begin{array}{ll} {I}_{n} & \\ & - 1 \end{array}\right) {}^{t}g\left( \begin{array}{ll} {...

Theorem 45.5. Let \( \left( {\pi, V}\right) \) be an irreducible representation of \( \mathrm{O}\left( {n + 1}\right) \) . Then there exists at most one subspace of \( {L}^{2}\left( {S}^{n}\right) \) that is invariant under the action of \( \mathrm{O}\left( {n + 1}\right) \) and affords a representation isomorphic to \...
Proof. Let \( \phi : V \rightarrow {L}^{2}\left( {S}^{n}\right) \) be an intertwining operator. It is sufficient to show that \( \phi \) is uniquely determined up to a constant multiple. The \( \mathrm{O}\left( {n + 1}\right) \) - equivariance of \( \phi \) amounts to the formula\n\n\[ \phi \left( {\pi \left( g\right) ...

Proposition 45.6. If \( g \in \mathrm{U}\left( n\right) \), then there exist \( {k}_{1} \) and \( {k}_{2} \in \mathrm{O}\left( n\right) \) such that \( {k}_{1}g{k}_{2} \) is diagonal.
Proof. Let \( x = {g}^{t}g \) . This is a unitary symmetric matrix. By Proposition 28.2, there exists \( {k}_{1} \in \mathrm{O}\left( n\right) \) such that \( {k}_{1}x{k}_{1}^{-1} \) is diagonal. It is unitary, so its diagonal entries have absolute value 1. Taking their square roots, we find a unitary diagonal matrix \...

Theorem 45.6. The group \( \mathrm{O}\left( n\right) \) is a Gelfand subgroup of \( \mathrm{U}\left( n\right) \) .
Proof. Let \( G = \mathrm{U}\left( n\right) \) and \( H = \mathrm{O}\left( n\right) \), and let \( \mathcal{H} \) be the ring of Theorem 45.3. The transpose involution of \( G \) preserves \( H \) and thus induces an involution of \( \mathcal{H} \) . By Proposition 45.6, every double coset in \( H \smallsetminus G/H \)...

Lemma 46.1. Let \( J \) be any subset of \( \sum \) . Then there exist integers \( {k}_{1},\ldots ,{k}_{r} \) such that the subgroup of \( {S}_{k} \) generated by \( J \) is \( {S}_{{k}_{1}} \times \cdots \times {S}_{{k}_{r}} \) .
Proof. If \( J \) contains \( \left( {1,2}\right) ,\left( {2,3}\right) ,\ldots ,\left( {{k}_{1} - 1,{k}_{1}}\right) \), then the subgroup they generate is the symmetric group \( {S}_{{k}_{1}} \) acting on \( \left\{ {1,\ldots ,{k}_{1}}\right\} \) . Taking \( {k}_{1} \) as large as possible, assume that \( J \) omits \(...

(i) Let \( J \subseteq \sum \) . Then\n\n\[ \n{M}_{J} = \mathop{\bigcup }\limits_{{w \in {W}_{J}}}{B}_{J}w{B}_{J}\;\text{ (disjoint). }\n\]
For (i), we have (46.3) for suitable \( {k}_{i} \) . Now \( {B}_{J} \) is the direct product of the Borel subgroups of these \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( {{k}_{i}, F}\right) \), and \( {W}_{J} \) is the direct product (46.1). Part (i) follows directly from the Bruhat decomposition for \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( {k, F}\right) \) ...

Proposition 46.2. Let \( H \) be a group, and let \( {M}_{1} \) and \( {M}_{2} \) be subgroups of \( H \) . Then in the character ring of \( H \), the inner product of the characters induced from the trivial characters of \( {M}_{1} \) and \( {M}_{2} \), respectively, is equal to the number of double cosets in \( {M}_{...
Proof. By the geometric form of Mackey's theorem (Theorem 32.1), the space of intertwining maps from \( {\operatorname{Ind}}_{{M}_{1}}^{H}\left( 1\right) \) to \( {\operatorname{Ind}}_{{M}_{2}}^{H}\left( 1\right) \) is isomorphic to the space of functions \( \Delta : H \rightarrow \operatorname{Hom}\left( {\mathbb{C},\...

Proposition 46.3. As a virtual representation, the alternating character \( {\mathbf{e}}_{k} \) of \( {S}_{k} \) admits the following expression:
Proof. We recall that \( {\mathbf{e}}_{k} = {\mathbf{s}}_{\lambda } \), where \( \lambda \) is the partition \( \left( {1,\ldots ,1}\right) \) of \( K \) . The right-hand side of (35.10) gives \[ {\mathbf{e}}_{k} = \left| \begin{matrix} {\mathbf{h}}_{1} & {\mathbf{h}}_{2} & {\mathbf{h}}_{3} & \cdots & {\mathbf{h}}_{k} ...

Theorem 46.2. As a virtual representation, the Steinberg representation \( {\mathbf{e}}_{k}\left( q\right) \) of \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( {k,{\mathbb{F}}_{q}}\right) \) admits the following expression:\n\n\[ \n{\mathbf{e}}_{k}\left( q\right) = \mathop{\sum }\limits_{{J \subseteq \sum }}{\left( -1\right) }^{\left| J\right...

Proposition 46.4. Suppose that \( S \) is any subset of \( \Phi \) such that if \( \alpha \in S \), then \( - \alpha \notin S \), and if \( \alpha ,\beta \in S \) and \( \alpha + \beta \in \Phi \), then \( \alpha + \beta \in S \) . Let \( {U}_{S} \) be the set of \( g = \left( {g}_{ij}\right) \) in \( \mathrm{{GL}}\lef...
Proof. Let \( \widetilde{S} \) be the set of \( \left( {i, j}\right) \) such that the root \( {\alpha }_{ij} \in S \) . Translating the hypothesis on \( S \) into a statement about \( \widetilde{S} \), if \( \left( {i, j}\right) \in \widetilde{S} \) we have \( i < j \), and\n\n\[ \text{if both}\left( {i, j}\right) \tex...

Proposition 46.5. Let \( F = {\mathbb{F}}_{q} \) be finite, and let \( w \in W \) . We have\n\n\[ \left| {U}_{w}^{ - }\right| = {q}^{l\left( w\right) } \]
Proof. By Propositions 20.2 and 20.5, the cardinality of \( S = {\Phi }^{ + } \cap {w}^{-1}{\Phi }^{ - } \) is \( l\left( w\right) \), so this follows from the definition of \( {U}_{S} \) .
Yes
Proposition 46.6. Let \( w \in W \) . The multiplication map \( {U}_{w}^{ + } \times {U}_{w}^{ - } \rightarrow U \) is bijective.
Proof. We will prove this if \( F \) is finite, the only case we need. In this case \( {U}_{w}^{ + } \cap {U}_{w}^{ - } = \{ 1\} \) by definition since the sets \( {\Phi }^{ + } \cap w{\Phi }^{ - } \) and \( {\Phi }^{ + } \cap w{\Phi }^{ + } \) are disjoint. Thus, if \( {u}_{1}^{ + }{u}_{1}^{ - } = {u}_{2}^{ + }{u}_{2}...

Proposition 46.7. Let \( F = {\mathbb{F}}_{q} \) be finite, and let \( w \in W \) . The order of \( {BwB}/B \) is \( {q}^{l\left( w\right) } \) .
Proof. We will show that \( {u}^{ - } \mapsto {u}^{ - }{wB} \) is a bijection \( {U}_{w}^{ - } \rightarrow {BwB}/B \) . The result then follows from Proposition 46.5.\n\nNote that every right coset in \( {BwB}/B \) is of the form \( {bwB} \) for some \( b \in B \) . Using Proposition 46.6, we may write \( b \in B \) un...
Yes
Proposition 46.8. Let \( w,{w}^{\prime } \in W \) such that \( l\left( {w{w}^{\prime }}\right) = l\left( w\right) + l\left( {w}^{\prime }\right) \) . Then\n\n\[{\phi }_{w{w}^{\prime }} = {\phi }_{w}{\phi }_{{w}^{\prime }} \]
Proof. By Proposition 27.1, we have \( \mathcal{C}\left( {w{w}^{\prime }}\right) = \mathcal{C}\left( w\right) \mathcal{C}\left( {w}^{\prime }\right) \) . Therefore \( {\phi }_{w} * {\phi }_{{w}^{\prime }} \) is supported in \( \mathcal{C}\left( {w{w}^{\prime }}\right) \) and is hence a constant multiple of \( {\phi }_{...
Yes
Proposition 46.9. Let \( s \in W \) be a simple reflection. Then\n\n\[{\phi }_{s} * {\phi }_{s} = q{\phi }_{1} + \left( {q - 1}\right) {\phi }_{s}\]
Proof. By (27.2), we have \( \mathcal{C}\left( s\right) \mathcal{C}\left( s\right) \subseteq \mathcal{C}\left( 1\right) \cup \mathcal{C}\left( s\right) \) . Therefore, there exist constants \( \lambda \) and \( \mu \) such that \( {\phi }_{s} * {\phi }_{s} = \lambda {\phi }_{1} + \mu {\phi }_{s} \) . Evaluating both si...
Yes
Proposition 46.10. If \( q = 1 \), the Hecke ring \( {\mathcal{H}}_{k}\left( 1\right) \) is isomorphic to the group ring of \( {S}_{k} \) .
Proof. This is clear from Theorem 25.1 since if \( q = 1 \) the defining relations of the ring \( {\mathcal{H}}_{k}\left( 1\right) \) coincide with the Coxeter relations presenting \( {S}_{k} \) .
Yes
Proposition 46.11. Suppose that \( w \in W \) with \( l\left( w\right) = r \), and suppose that \( w = {s}_{1}\cdots {s}_{r} = {s}_{1}^{\prime }\cdots {s}_{r}^{\prime } \) are distinct decompositions of minimal length into simple reflections. Then\n\n\[ \n{f}_{{s}_{1}} * \cdots * {f}_{{s}_{r}} = {f}_{{s}_{1}^{\prime }}...
Proof. Let \( B \) be the braid group generated by \( {u}_{{\alpha }_{i}} \) parametrized by the simple roots \( {\alpha }_{i} \), with \( n\left( {{u}_{{\alpha }_{i}},{u}_{{\alpha }_{j}}}\right) \) equal to the order (2 or 3) of \( {s}_{{\alpha }_{i}}{s}_{{\alpha }_{j}} \) . Let \( {s}_{i} = {s}_{{\beta }_{i}} \) and ...
Yes
Theorem 46.4. Let \( q \) be a prime power. Then the Hecke algebra \( {\mathcal{H}}_{k}\left( q\right) \) is isomorphic to the convolution ring of \( B \) -bi-invariant functions on \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( {k,{\mathbb{F}}_{q}}\right) \) , where \( B \) is the Borel subgroup of upper triangular matrices in \( \mathrm{{GL...
Proof. It follows from Propositions 46.8 and 46.9 that (46.11)-(46.13) are all satisfied by the elements \( {\phi }_{w} \) in the ring \( \mathcal{H} \) of \( B \) -bi-invariant functions on \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( {n,{\mathbb{F}}_{q}}\right) \), so there exists a homomorphism \( {\mathcal{H}}_{k}\left( q\right) \righta...

Theorem 47.1 (Selberg, Langlands). Let \( r + t = k \) . Let \( P \) and \( Q \) be the parabolic subgroups of \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( k\right) \) with Levi factors \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( r\right) \times \mathrm{{GL}}\left( t\right) \) and \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( t\right) \times \) \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( r\right) \), res...

Proposition 47.1. Let \( \left( {\pi, V}\right) \) be a cuspidal representation of \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( {k,{\mathbb{F}}_{q}}\right) \) . If \( U \) is the unipotent radical of a standard maximal parabolic subgroup of \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( {k,{\mathbb{F}}_{q}}\right) \) and if \( \eta : V \rightarrow \mathbb{C} \) is...
Proof. Choose an invariant inner product \( \langle \) , \( \rangle {onV} \) . There exists a vector \( y \in V \) such that \( \eta \left( v\right) = \langle v, y\rangle \) . Then\n\n\[ \langle v,\pi \left( u\right) y\rangle = \left\langle {\pi {\left( u\right) }^{-1}v, y}\right\rangle = \eta \left( {\pi {\left( u\rig...

Proposition 47.2. Every irreducible representation \( \left( {\pi, V}\right) \) of \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( {k,{\mathbb{F}}_{q}}\right) \) is a constituent in some representation \( {\pi }_{1} \circ \cdots \circ {\pi }_{m} \) with the \( {\pi }_{i} \) cuspidal.
Proof. If \( \pi \) is cuspidal, then we may take \( m = 1 \) and \( {\pi }_{1} = \pi \) . There is nothing to prove in this case.\n\nIf \( \pi \) is not cuspidal, then there exists a decomposition \( k = r + t \) such that the space \( {V}^{U} \) of \( U \) -fixed vectors is nonzero, where \( U \) is the group (47.3)....
Yes
Theorem 47.2. The multiplication in \( \mathcal{R}\left( q\right) \) is commutative.
Proof. We will frame our proof in terms of characters rather than representations, so in this proof elements of \( {\mathcal{R}}_{k}\left( q\right) \) are generalized characters of \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( {k,{\mathbb{F}}_{q}}\right) \). We make use of the involution \( \iota : \mathrm{{GL}}\left( {k,{\mathbb{F}}_{q}}\ri...

Theorem 47.4. Suppose that \( \lambda = \left( {{\lambda }_{1},\ldots ,{\lambda }_{r}}\right) \) is an ordered partition of \( k \) , and let \( {\pi }_{\lambda } = \otimes {\pi }_{i} \) be a cuspidal representation of \( {M}_{\lambda } \) . Suppose that no \( {\pi }_{i} \cong {\pi }_{j} \) . Then \( {\pi }_{1} \circ \...
Proof. By Theorem 47.3, the dimension of the space of intertwining operators of \( \operatorname{Ind}\left( {\pi }_{\lambda }\right) \) to itself is one, and it follows that this space is irreducible. The last statement is also clear from Theorem 47.3.
Yes
Theorem 47.5 (Howlett and Lehrer). Let \( {\pi }_{0} \) be a cuspidal representation of \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( {l,{\mathbb{F}}_{q}}\right) \) . Then the endomorphism ring \( \operatorname{End}\left( {\pi }_{0}^{\circ t}\right) \) is naturally isomorphic to \( {\mathcal{H}}_{t}\left( {q}^{l}\right) \) .
Proof. Proofs may be found in Howlett and Lehrer [80] and Howe [74].

Corollary 47.1. There exists a natural bijection between the set of partitions \( \lambda \) of \( t \) and the irreducible constituents \( {\sigma }_{\lambda \left( \pi \right) } \) of \( {\pi }_{0}^{\circ t} \) . The multiplicity of \( {\sigma }_{\lambda \left( \pi \right) } \) in \( {\pi }_{0}^{\text{ot }} \) equals...
Proof. The multiplicity of \( {\sigma }_{\lambda \left( \pi \right) } \) in \( {\pi }_{0}^{\circ t} \) equals the multiplicity of the corresponding module of \( {\mathcal{H}}_{t}\left( {q}^{l}\right) \) . By Exercise 46.5, this is the degree of \( {\mathbf{s}}_{\lambda } \) .
No
Theorem 47.6. Let \( \left( {{\lambda }_{1},\ldots ,{\lambda }_{r}}\right) \) be an ordered partition of \( k \), and let \( {\lambda }_{i} = {l}_{i}{t}_{i} \) . Let \( {\pi }_{i} \) be a cuspidal representation of \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( {{l}_{i},{\mathbb{F}}_{q}}\right) \), with no two \( {\pi }_{i} \) isomorphic. Let...
Proof. We note the following general principle: \( \chi \) is a character of any group, and if \( \chi = \sum {d}_{i}{\chi }_{i} \) is a decomposition into subrepresentations such that\n\n\[ \langle \chi ,\chi \rangle = \sum {d}_{i}^{2} \]\n\nthen the \( {\chi }_{i} \) are irreducible and mutually nonisomorphic.

Theorem 47.7 (Green). Let \( G \) be a finite group, and let \( \rho : G \rightarrow \mathrm{{GL}}\left( {k,{\mathbb{F}}_{q}}\right) \) be a representation. Let \( f \in \mathbb{Z}\left\lbrack {{X}_{1},\ldots ,{X}_{k}}\right\rbrack \) be a symmetric polynomial with integer coefficients. Let \( \theta : {\overline{\math...
Proof. First, we reduce to the following case: \( \theta : {\overline{\mathbb{F}}}_{q}^{ \times } \rightarrow {\mathbb{C}}^{ \times } \) is injective and \( f\left( {{X}_{1},\ldots ,{X}_{k}}\right) = \sum {X}_{i} \) . If this case is known, then by replacing \( \rho \) by its exterior powers we get the same result for ...

Lemma 47.1.

Let \( {\sum }_{k} \) be the following set. An element of \( {\sum }_{k} \) consists of a 4-tuple \( \left( {\left\...

Theorem 47.8. The number of cuspidal representations of \( \mathrm{{GL}}\left( {k,{\mathbb{F}}_{q}}\right) \) equals the number of irreducible monic polynomials of degree \( k \) over \( {\mathbb{F}}_{q} \) .
Proof. We can apply the lemma with \( {X}_{k} \) either the set of cuspidal representations of \( {S}_{k} \) or with the set of monic irreducible polynomials of degree \( k \) over \( {\mathbb{F}}_{q} \) .

Proposition 47.4. Assume that \( \theta \) can be extended to a character \( \theta : {\overline{\mathbb{F}}}_{q}^{ \times } \rightarrow \) \( {\mathbb{C}}^{ \times } \) that is injective. Then the inner product \( \left\langle {{\chi }_{k},{\chi }_{k}}\right\rangle = k \) .

Lemma 48.1. In the characterization of \( {\mathfrak{C}}_{\left( d\right) } \) it is only necessary to impose the condition (48.6) at integers \( 0 < i < r + s \) such that \( {d}_{i + 1} = {d}_{i} > {d}_{i - 1} \) .
Proof. If \( {d}_{i + 1} > {d}_{i} \) and \( \dim \left( {V \cap {F}_{i + 1}}\right) \geq {d}_{i + 1} \), then since \( V \cap {F}_{i} \) has codimension at most 1 in \( V \cap {F}_{i + 1} \) we do not need to assume \( \dim \left( {V \cap {F}_{i}}\right) \geq {d}_{i} \) .

Proposition 48.1. The image in \( {\mathcal{G}}_{r, s} \) of the Schubert cell \( \mathcal{C}\left( w\right) \) corresponding to the partition \( \lambda \) (the diagram of which, we have noted, must fit in an \( r \times s \) box) is \( {\mathfrak{C}}_{\left( d\right) } \), where the integer sequence \( \left( {{d}_{0...

The image of \( \mathcal{C}{\left( w\right) }^{ \circ } \) in \( {\mathcal{G}}_{r, s} \) consists of all spaces \( {bw}{F}_{r} \) with \( b \in B \), so we must show that, with \( {d}_{i} \) as in (48.7), we have\n\n\[ \n\dim \left( {{bw}{F}_{r} \cap {F}_{i}}\right) = {d}_{i...

Lemma 1.1. An automorphism \( \varphi \) of \( {\mathbb{B}}_{n} \) is a unitary transformation of \( {\mathbb{C}}^{n} \) if and only if \( \varphi \left( 0\right) = 0 \) .

Theorem 1.4. Every automorphism \( \varphi \) of \( {\mathbb{B}}_{n} \) is of the form\n\n\[ \varphi = U{\varphi }_{a} = {\varphi }_{b}V \]\n\nwhere \( U \) and \( V \) are unitary transformations of \( {\mathbb{C}}^{n} \), and \( {\varphi }_{a} \) and \( {\varphi }_{b} \) are involutions.
Proof. Suppose \( \varphi \in \operatorname{Aut}\left( {\mathbb{B}}_{n}\right) \) and \( a = {\varphi }^{-1}\left( 0\right) \) . Then the automorphism \( \psi = \varphi \circ {\varphi }_{a} \) satisfies \( \psi \left( 0\right) = 0 \) . By Lemma 1.1, there exists a unitary transformation \( U \) of \( {\mathbb{C}}^{n} \...
Yes
Corollary 1.5. Every \( \varphi \) in \( \operatorname{Aut}\left( {\mathbb{B}}_{n}\right) \) extends to a homeomorphism of \( {\mathbb{S}}_{n} \) .
Proof. It is obvious that every unitary transformation in \( \operatorname{Aut}\left( {\mathbb{B}}_{n}\right) \) induces a homeomorphism of \( {\mathbb{S}}_{n} \) . By Lemma 1.2, every involution \( {\varphi }_{a} \) also extends to a homeomorphism on \( {\mathbb{S}}_{n} \) .

Lemma 1.6. If we identify linear transformations of \( {\mathbb{C}}^{n} \) with \( n \times n \) matrices via the standard basis of \( {\mathbb{C}}^{n} \), then for every \( a \in {\mathbb{B}}_{n} - \{ 0\} \) we have\n\n\[ \n{\varphi }_{a}^{\prime }\left( 0\right) = - \left( {1 - {\left| a\right| }^{2}}\right) {P}_{a} ...
