Title |
Unitary representations of semisimple Lie groups and conical symplectic singularities |
Abstract |
One of the most fundamental unsolved problems in representation theory is to classify the set of irreducible unitary representations of a semisimple Lie group. In this talk, I will define a class of such representations coming from filtered quantizations of certain graded Poisson varieties. The representations I construct are expected to form the “building blocks” of all unitary representations. |
