Theorem 1.1 is the general Mautner statement used in Shah's Proposition 2.7.

Theorem 1.1No issue found

An eigenvector for a one-parameter subgroup is fixed by its ad-compact normal subgroup

Version of record p. 156 · PDF p. 3 · Theorem 1.1; proof pp. 158–165 · PDF pp. 5–12

For XX in the Lie algebra of a connected Lie group, let HXH_X be the smallest connected normal subgroup for which the image of exp⁡(tX)\exp(tX) in the quotient is ad-compact. Theorem 1.1 proves that every eigenvector for the unitary action of exp⁡(tX)\exp(tX) is fixed by HXH_X. Taking eigenvalue zero gives the Mautner property for fixed vectors. Shah applies this separately to the unipotent one-parameter subgroups generating LL and then combines the resulting normal subgroups.

02Proofs2 reported findingsFurther proof verification needed

Most reductions are written out, but the decisive final reduction imports exact arguments from Dani 1977 and Moore 1966.

Internal proof architectureCorrect and complete modulo represented sources

The spectral and Lie-algebra reductions are coherent

Version of record pp. 158–164 · PDF pp. 5–11 · Theorems 2.3, 4.1–4.2

Theorem 2.3 separates expanding and contracting root subgroups and obtains Lebesgue spectrum on their non-fixed subspaces. Section 3 removes the compact semisimple part of ad⁡X\operatorname{ad}X. Theorem 4.1 handles the nilradical case through Mackey–Kirillov decomposition, and Theorem 4.2 turns it into the normal-subgroup Mautner statement used in the final reduction. These steps consistently imply the fixed-vector conclusion once Theorems 5.1–5.2 are available.

Dani 1977 and Moore 1966 are proof-critical non-book parents

Version of record pp. 164–165 · PDF pp. 11–12 · Theorems 5.1–5.2

The proof of Theorem 5.1 explicitly says that Dani 1977, Proposition 4.1, carries over word for word after replacing Dani's geometric preliminary lemma by Moore's Theorem 4.2. Theorem 5.2 likewise invokes Dani 1977, Proposition 5.1, and gives Moore 1966's semisimple result as an alternative justification. Both papers are now represented with exact metadata and consumer restatements, but their original proofs remain inaccessible and explicitly unverified. Mackey and Kirillov theory are used as standard representation-theoretic foundations in the fully written internal reductions; they do not replace the two omitted Section 5 arguments.
