For this we use the realizations of complementary series representations of $G$ and $G_1$ on Sobolev spaces on the nilpotent radicals $N$ and $N_1$ of the minimal parabolics in $G$ and $G_1$, respectively. The groups $N$ and $N_1$ are of H-type and we construct explicitly invariant differential operators between $N$ and $N_1$. These operators induce the projections onto the discrete components. Our construction of the invariant differential operators is carried out uniformly in the framework of H-type groups and also works for those H-type groups which do not occur as nilpotent radical of a parabolic subgroup in a semisimple group.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-02-07T17:44:55.000Z", "comment": "20 pages", "journal": null, "doi": null }, { "version": "v2", "updated": "2014-09-22T15:33:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "22E46", "22E25" ], "keywords": [ "h-type groups", "semisimple group", "discrete components", "complementary series representations", "restriction" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1402.1717M" } } }
