We prove a ðtype formula in a suitable non-compact setting. We use this formula to evaluate explicitly the pushforward of the Liouville measure via the moment map of both an abelian and a non-abelian group action. As an application we obtain the classical analogues of well-known multiplicity formulas for the holomorphic discrete series representations.
The integration of the exponential of the square of the moment map of the circle action is studied by a direct stationary phase computation and by applying the Duistermaat-Heckman formula. Both methods yield two distinct formulas expressing the integral in terms of contributions from the critical set of the square of the moment map. The cohomological pairings on the symplectic quotient, including its volume (which was known to be a piecewise polynomial), are computed explicitly using the asymptotic behavior of the two formulas.
