Classification of connected unimodular Lie groups with discrete series
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Tome 30 (1980) no. 1, pp. 159-192.

On introduit la classe des H-groupes, intermédiaire entre celle des groupes de Lie connexes nilpotents et celle des groupes de Lie connexes résolubles. Soit G un groupe de Lie connexe unimodulaire, de centre Z, tel que G/ Rad G ait un centre fini. A quelques restrictions techniques près, on montre qu’un tel groupe G a une série discrète de représentations si et seulement s’il se représente sous la forme G=HS avec les hypothèses suivantes : a) H est un H-groupe de centre Z 0 ; b) S est un groupe de Lie réductif connexe, possédant une série discrète; c) Cent(S)/Z est compact; d) on a HS=Z 0 .

We introduce a new class of connected solvable Lie groups called H-group. Namely a H-group is a unimodular connected solvable Lie group with center Z such that for some in the Lie algebra h of H, the symplectic for B on h/z given by ([x,y]) is nondegenerate. Moreover, apart form some technical requirements, it will be proved that a connected unimodular Lie group G with center Z, such that the center of G/ Rad G is finite, has discrete series if and only if G may be written as G=HS , HS=Z 0 , where H is a H-group with center Z 0 and S is a connected reductive Lie group with discrete series such that Cent(S)/Z is compact.
