Abstract

This article studies connections between group actions and their corresponding vector spaces. Given an action of a group G on a nonempty set X, we examine the space L(X) of scalar-valued functions on X and its fixed subspace: LG(X) = \f∈ L(X)\colon f(a⋅ x) = f(x) \textrm for all a∈ G, x∈ X\. In particular, we show that LG(X) is an invariant of the action of G on X. In the case when the action is finite, we compute the dimension of LG(X) in terms of fixed points of X and prove several prominent results for LG(X), including Bessel's inequality and Frobenius reciprocity.
