Research Abstract |
The purpose of the present research project is to clarify a meaninmg of several important identities of the form "infinite product=infinite sum" by an evaluation of various determinants via the ideas : 1) the minor summation formula of Pfaffians, 2) dual pairs, 3) a precise study of (Selberg) trace formulas. (1) We developed the theory of dual pairs in a context of quantum groups (Noumi-Umeda-W., Comp.Math., 104,1996) and extended it to general rank cases (Umeda-W. ; Another look at the differential operators on the quantum matrix spaces and its applications/96). Further, we gave a new proof of Littlewood's formulas for characters by enumerative combinatorics using Pfaffinas and established several identities which involve Littilewood's formulas (Ishikawa-Okada-W., J.Alg., 183,1996). We obtained also generating functions including various symmetric functions and, in particular, gave a representation theoretic interpretation of the product representation of elliptic theta (Ishikawa-W. ;

(2) We studied the trace formula on negatively curved locally symmetric Riemannian spaces in an explicit way and solved a problem concerning an equidistribution property of holonomy as an application of it (Sarnak-W. ; Equidistribution of holonomy about closed geodesics/96). As a biproduct, I got a ceratin remarkable estimate concerning an infinitesimal character of the (restricted) holonomy group (An in-equality of infinitesimal characters related to the lowest K-types of discrete series/97). Parallely, the investigator Yoshida studied the Kloosterman zeta for obtaining a good estimate of a remainder term with respect to a distribution of closed geodesic on a Riemann surface (Remarks on the Kuznetov trace formula, to appaer). Also Kon-no studied a Langlands' functoriality for automorphic representations on some classical groups of rank 2 (The residual spectrum of U (2,2) & Sp (2), to appear) and the precise study of trace formula for an explicit description of cuspidal automorphic representations (The Arthur trace formula for GSp (2) I/97). To help these studies, Inoue established a realization and an irreducible decomposition of holomorhically induced representation of some solvable group of affine transformations which act simply transitively on a homogeneous Siegel domain.
