Abstract:

In response to one of ten problems posed by G. Warner, we assign (to the extent that it is possible) a geometric or cohomological interpretation— in the sense of Langlands—to the multiplicty in ${L^2}(\Gamma \backslash G)$ of an irreducible unitary representation $\pi$ of a semisimple Lie group $G$, where $\Gamma$ is a discrete subgroup of $G$, in the case when $\pi$ has a highest weight.
