STEPWISE SQUARE INTEGRABLE REPRESENTATIONS FOR LOCALLY NILPOTENT LIE GROUPS

In a recent paper we found conditions for a nilpotent Lie group $N$ to have a filtration by normal subgroups whose successive quotients have square integrable representations, and such that these square integrable representations fit together nicely to give an explicit construction of Plancherel almost all representations of $N$. That resulted in explicit character formulae, Plancherel formulae and multiplicity formulae. We also showed that nilradicals $N$ of minimal parabolic subgroups $P = MAN$ enjoy that "stepwise square integrable" property. Here we extend those results to direct limits of stepwise square integrable nilpotent Lie groups. This involves some development of the corresponding Schwartz spaces. The main result is an explicit Fourier inversion formula for that class of infinite dimensional Lie groups. One important consequence is the Fourier inversion formula for nilradicals of classical minimal parabolic subgroups of finitary real reductive Lie groups such as $GL(\infty;R)$, $Sp(\infty;C)$ and $SO(\infty,\infty)$.
