For each real-valued vector $\\chi=(\\chi_1,...,\\chi_t)$ with positive components, we define a unitary $\\chi$-representation of $\\mathcal S$ as a system $(U;U_1,...,U_t)$ that consists of a unitary space $U$ and its subspaces $U_i$ such that $U_i\\subseteq U_j$ if $s_i\\prec s_j$ and satisfies $\\chi_1 P_1+...+\\chi_t P_t= \\mathbb 1$, in which $P_i$ is the orthogonal projection onto $U_i$. We prove that $\\mathcal S$ has a finite number of unitarily nonequivalent indecomposable $\\chi$-representations for each weight $\\chi$ if and only if $\\mathcal S$ has a finite number of nonequivalent indecomposable subspace representations; that is, if and only if $\\mathcal S$ contains any of Kleiner's critical posets.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2012-02-18T22:26:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "15A63", "15A21", "16G20" ], "keywords": [ "unitary representations", "kleiners theorem", "finite number", "nonequivalent indecomposable subspace representations", "vector space" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1103.1085S" } } }
