Abstract:Motivated by the interesting and yet scattered developments in representation theory of Banach-Lie groups, we discuss several functional analytic issues which should underlie the notion of infinite-dimensional reductive Lie group: norm ideals, triangular integrals, operator factorizations, and amenability.
What a reductive Lie group is supposed to beIntroduction. We approach the problem of finding an appropriate infinite-dimensional version of reductive Lie group. The discussion is motivated by the need to hav… Show more
“…The proof can be achieved by using appropriate infinite-dimensional versions of some standard ideas from the theory of Iwasawa decompositions of reductive groups (specifically, see for instance the proofs of Theorems 6.31 and 6.46 in [Kn96]).

“…In particular we address an old conjecture on the existence of such decompositions for the classical Banach-Lie groups of operators associated with the Schatten operator ideals on Hilbert spaces (see subsection 8.4 of Section II.8 in [Ha72] and Section 3 below), and we show that the corresponding question can be answered in the affirmative in many cases, even in the case of the covering groups (Corollary 7.2 below). To place these results in a proper perspective, we mention that part of our motivation comes from the problem of describing an appropriate class of infinite-dimensional reductive Lie groups, as discussed in the paper [Be09].…”

Abstract. We set up an abstract framework that allows the investigation of Iwasawa decompositions for involutive infinite-dimensional Lie groups modeled on Banach spaces. This provides a method to construct Iwasawa decompositions for classical real or complex Banach-Lie groups associated with the Schatten ideals S p (H) on a complex separable Hilbert space H if 1 < p < ∞.

We extend the definition of conical representations for Riemannian symmetric spaces to a certain class of infinite-dimensional Riemannian symmetric spaces. Using an infinite-dimensional version of Weyl's Unitary Trick, there is a correspondence between smooth representations of infinite-dimensional noncompact-type Riemannian symmetric spaces and smooth representations of infinite-dimensional compact-type symmetric spaces. We classify all smooth conical representations which are unitary on the compacttype side. Finally, a new class of non-smooth unitary conical representations appears on the compact-type side which has no analogue in the finite-dimensional case. We classify these representations and show how to decompose them into direct integrals of irreducible conical representations.2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. 43A85, 53C35, 22E46.
In this paper, we construct a (generalized) Banach Poisson-Lie group structure on the unitary restricted Banach Lie group acting transitively on the restricted Grassmannian. A "dual" Banach Lie group consisting of (a class of) upper triangular bounded operators admits also a Poisson-Lie group structure. We show that the restricted Grassmannian inherits a Bruhat-Poisson structure from the unitary Banach Lie group, and that the action of the dual Banach Lie group on it (by "dressing transformations") is a Poisson map. This action generates the KdV hierarchy as explained in [SW85], and its orbits are the Schubert cells of the restricted Grassmannian as described in [PS88].
