Kirillov conjecture

A related conjecture is that for two irreducible representations 
and 
of, respectively, 
and 
, the product

is irreducible.
For 
non-Archimedean (cf. also Archimedean axiom), both conjectures are true (Bernstein's theorems).
For 
, these conjectures have been proved by S. Sahi [a1].
