Abstract: Canonical sets of cyclic vectors for principal series representations of semisimple Lie groups having faithful representations are found. These cyclic vectors are used to obtain estimates for the number of irreducible subrepresentations of a principal series representations. The results are used to prove irreducibility for the full principal series of complex semisimple Lie groups and for .
