A criterion for discrete branching laws for Klein four symmetric pairs and its application to $E_{6(-14)}$ (1910.14457v1)
Abstract: Let $G$ be a noncompact connected simple Lie group, and $(G,G\Gamma)$ a Klein four symmetric pair. In this paper, the author shows a necessary condition for the discrete decomposability of unitarizable simple $(\mathfrak{g},K)$-modules for Klein for symmetric pairs. Precisely, if certain conditions hold for $(G,G\Gamma)$, there does not exist any unitarizable simple $(\mathfrak{g},K)$-module that is discretely decomposable as a $(\mathfrak{g}\Gamma,K\Gamma)$-module. As an application, for $G=\mathrm{E}_{6(-14)}$, the author obtains a complete classification of Klein four symmetric pairs $(G,G\Gamma)$ with $G\Gamma$ noncompact, such that there exists at least one nontrivial unitarizable simple $(\mathfrak{g},K)$-module that is discretely decomposable as a $(\mathfrak{g}\Gamma,K\Gamma)$-module and is also discretely decomposable as a $(\mathfrak{g}\sigma,K\sigma)$-module for some nonidentity element $\sigma\in\Gamma$.
