This book was released on 2004 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book begins with a simplified (and somewhat extended and corrected) exposition of the main results of F. Karpelevich's 1955 paper and relates them to the theory of Cartan-Iwahori. It concludes with some tables, where an involution of the Dynkin diagram that allows for finding self-conjugate representations is described and explicit formulas for the index are given. In a short addendum, written by J. V. Silhan, this involution is interpreted in terms of the Satake diagram.
