Admissible vectors for the regular representation. (English) Zbl 1002.43004

It is known that for irreducible square-integrable representations of a locally compact group there exist so-called admissible vectors which allow the construction of generalized continuous wavelet transforms. The author discusses the case when the irreducibility requirement can be dropped, using a connection between-generalized wavelet transforms and Plancherel theory. For unimodular groups with type I regular representation, the existence of admissible vectors is equivalent to a finite measure condition. The main result proved by the author states that this restriction disappears in the nonunimodular case. For a nondiscrete second countable group \(G\) with type \(I\) regular representation \(\lambda_G\), it is shown that \(\lambda_G\) itself, and hence every subrepresentation thereof, has an admissible vector in the sense of wavelet theory iff \(G\) is nonunimodular.
