Cartan-Decomposition Subgroups of SU(2,n)
Journal of Lie Theory, Volume 11 (2001) no. 2, pp. 505-543
We give explicit, practical conditions that determine whether or not a closed, connected subgroup H of G = SU(2, n) has the property that there exists a compact subset C of G with CHC = G. For this purpose we fix a Cartan decomposition G = K A+ K of G, and then carry out an approximate calculation of the intersection of (KHK) and A+ for each closed, connected subgroup H of G. This generalizes the work of H. Oh and D. Witte for G = SO(2, n).
