Plancherel Theorem and the Left Ideals of the Group Algebra for the Jacobi Group

Abstract

Let G be the three dimensional connected real semisimple Lie group and let KAN be the Iwasawa decomposition of G.Let J be the Jacobi group, which is the semidirect product of the two groups Heisenberg group with G. The Jacobi group plays an important role in Quantum Mechanics. The purpose of this paper is to define the Fourier transform in order to obtain the Plancherel theorem for the group J. To this end a classification of all left ideals of the group algebra for the Jacobi group
