Abstract
We define so-called “elementary representations” T R,µ p , p ∈ ℤ, of the group B ℤ0 of finite upper-triangular matrices infinite in both directions by using quasi-invariant measures on certain homogeneous spaces and give a criterion for the irreducibility and equivalence of the representations constructed. We also give a criterion for the irreducibility of the tensor product of finitely many and infinitely many elementary representations.
