Fixed-point free representation of a Lie group G, with non-trivial fixed points for proper subgroup

116 Views Asked by At

Assume we have a compact Lie group $G$ and a closed proper subgroup $H$. Is there an elementary way to see that there is a finite dimensional representation $V$ of $G$ with only trivial fixed points $V^G=\{0\}$, but such that $V^H\neq \{0\}$?
