The strong spectral gap conjecture for higher-rank lattices
Let be a center-free irreducible higher-rank lattice in , and let be a unitary representation of whose action does not extend to a -action on any non-trivial subrepresentation. The strong spectral gap conjecture. The unitary induction of to has a spectral gap with respect to each factor of . This strengthens the spectral gap conjecture and is known when has property T; the source gives no resolution in general.
