Abstract:
Let $G$ be a compact semisimple Lie group and $T$ be a maximal torus of $G$. We describe a method for weight multiplicity computation in unitary irreducible representations of $G$, based on the theory of Berezin quantization on $G/T$. Let $\Gamma _{\mathrm{hol}}(\mathcal L^\lambda)$ be the reproducing kernel Hilbert space of holomorphic sections of the homogeneous line bundle $\mathcal L^\lambda$ over $G/T$ associated with the highest weight $\lambda$ of the irreducible representation $\pi _\lambda$ of $G$. The multiplicity of a weight $m$ in $\pi _\lambda$ is computed from functional analytical structure of the Berezin symbol of the projector in $\Gamma _{\mathrm{hol}}(\mathcal L^\lambda)$ onto subspace of weight $m$. We describe a method of the construction of this symbol and the evaluation of the weight multiplicity as a rank of a Hermitian form. The application of this method is described in a number of examples.
