Representation theory of SO(p,q)

432 Views Asked by At

For a long time now, I have tried to look for the representation theory of $SO(p,q)$. I am in particular interested in the unitary irreducible representations and the bilinear Hermitian form on the space of (homogeneous) functions. I know that for certain degrees, the representations are unitary, but I want to know the associated bilinear form. Any reference (other then Vilenkin for $SL(2,\mathbf{R})$) would be welcome :)

Infinite dimensional unitary representations of $SO(p,q)$ are discussed in section 9.2.9, 9.2.10 of the book
