in the space $ V $ of a representation $ T $ of a Lie group $ G $

A vector $ \xi \in V $ for which the mapping $ g \mapsto [T(g)](\xi) $ is a real-analytic vector function on $ G $ with values in $ V $ (cf. Representation theory). If $ T $ is a weakly-continuous representation of a Lie group $ G $ in a Banach space $ V $, then the set $ V^{\omega} $ of analytic vectors is dense in $ V $ ([1], [2], [3]). This theorem has been generalized to a wide class of representations in locally convex spaces ([5]). It has been proven in [6] that a representation of a connected Lie group $ G $ in a Banach space $ V $ is uniquely determined by the corresponding representation of the Lie algebra of $ G $ in the space $ V^{\omega} $.

An analytic vector for an unbounded operator $ A $ on a Banach space $ V $, defined on a domain $ D(A) $, is defined as a vector $$ \xi \in \bigcap_{n = 1}^{\infty} D(A^{n}) $$ for which the series $$ \sum_{n = 1}^{\infty} \frac{x^{n}}{n!} \| {A^{n}}(\xi) \| $$ has a positive radius of convergence. This notion, which was introduced in [2], is a special case of the general concept of an analytic vector; here, the set of points on the real line with the operation of addition plays the role of the Lie group $ G $. It was found useful in the theory of operators on Banach spaces and in the theory of elliptic differential operators.

Comments

Integrability to the corresponding (simply-connected and connected) Lie group $ G $ of a representation of a Lie algebra $ \mathfrak{g} $ in a Hilbert space follows from the existence of a dense set of analytic vectors for the ‘Laplacian’ $ \Delta $ — the sum of the squares of skew-symmetric representatives, with a common dense invariant domain $ D $, of linear generators of $ \mathfrak{g} $ (known as Nelson’s criterion ([2])). More practical criteria were developed later, e.g., the existence of common analytic vectors for Lie generators (known as the $ \text{FS}^{3} $-criterion ([a2], [a3], [a4])), as well as similar results in more general spaces and a study of separate versus joint analyticity.
