Abstract

We use a theorem of Auslander and Kostant on the representation theory of solvable Lie-groups for the study of some groups necessary for the description of certain quasi-periodic systems of solid-state physics. We show that the magnetic translation group is tame (Type I) if the magnetic field is not constant but fluctuating.
