讲座主题:On some aspects of boundary representations

讲座摘要: I will discuss, in the case of the group SL(2,R), some aspects of boundary representations. Such a group acts naturally on its symmetric space. This action extends to the boundary on which almost all irreducible unitary representations can be realized. All these representations restrict to some interesting discrete subgroups: the lattices in SL(2,R). I will try to explain the interplay between ergodic theory, potential theory, and spectral estimates to obtain an ergodic theorem "à la von Neumann" for boundary representations. If time permits, I will discuss generalizations to other contexts of these tools and state some open conjecture.
