This book is an expanded version of the Hermann Weyl Lectures given at the Institute for Advanced Study in January 1986. It outlines some of what is now known about irreducible unitary representations of real reductive groups, providing fairly complete definitions and references, and sketches (at least) of most proofs. The first half of the book is devoted to the three more or less understood constructions of such representations: parabolic induction, complementary series, and cohomological parabolic induction. This culminates in the description of all irreducible unitary representation of the general linear groups. For other groups, one expects to need a new construction, giving "unipotent representations." The latter half of the book explains the evidence for that expectation and suggests a partial definition of unipotent representations.

Real Reductive Groups I is an introduction to the representation theory of real reductive groups. It is based on courses that the author has given at Rutgers for the past 15 years. It also had its genesis in an attempt of the author to complete a manuscript of the lectures that he gave at the CBMS regional conference at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in June of 1981. This book comprises 10 chapters and begins with some background material as an introduction. The following chapters then discuss elementary representation theory; real reductive groups; the basic theory of (g, K)-modules; the asymptotic behavior of matrix coefficients; The Langlands Classification; a construction of the fundamental series; cusp forms on G; character theory; and unitary representations and (g, K)-cohomology. This book will be of interest to mathematicians and statisticians.

This book describes the foundations of infinite-dimensional representations of real reductive Lie groups. There are three major topics. First is the Langlands classification of irreducible representations. This is done using a generalization of parabolic induction due to Zuckerman. Second is the analysis of reducibility in certain standard families of representations. Third is the formulation of Kazhdan and Lusztig's conjectural character formulas for arbitrary irreducible representations. Since the first edition was published in 1981, the Kazhdan-Lusztig conjectures have been proved, and Zuckerman's construction has been connected to unitary representations. This second edition summarizes those developments and other progress in the field.

This book offers a systematic treatment--the first in book form--of the development and use of cohomological induction to construct unitary representations. George Mackey introduced induction in 1950 as a real analysis construction for passing from a unitary representation of a closed subgroup of a locally compact group to a unitary representation of the whole group. Later a parallel construction using complex analysis and its associated co-homology theories grew up as a result of work by Borel, Weil, Harish-Chandra, Bott, Langlands, Kostant, and Schmid. Cohomological induction, introduced by Zuckerman, is an algebraic analog that is technically more manageable than the complex-analysis construction and leads to a large repertory of irreducible unitary representations of reductive Lie groups. The book, which is accessible to students beyond the first year of graduate school, will interest mathematicians and physicists who want to learn about and take advantage of the algebraic side of the representation theory of Lie groups. Cohomological Induction and Unitary Representations develops the necessary background in representation theory and includes an introductory chapter of motivation, a thorough treatment of the "translation principle," and four appendices on algebra and analysis.

This volume is the result of a conference on Representation Theory of Reductive Groups held in Park City, Utah, April 16-20, 1982, under the auspices of the Department of Mathematics, University of Utah. Funding for the conference was provided by the National Science Foundation. The text includes a number of original papers together with expository articles on work already in print. It is hoped that the volume will be of use to both experts in the field and nonspecialists interested in obtaining some insight into the area. Principal organizers of the conference were Henryk Hecht, Dragan Mili~ie, and Peter Trombi. They would like to express their thanks to the National Science Foundation for their support, to the speakers for their diligence in submitting their manuscripts, and to Carla Curtis, Karen Edge, and Katherine Ruth, for typing the manuscripts which were contributed. v CONTENTS J.
