This paper is devoted to the proof of the following theorem.

THEOREM 1.1. Let H be a closed subgroup of a connected Lie group G, let N denote the largest (closed) subgroup of H which is normal in all of G, and suppose that π is a unitary representation of H whose restriction to N is a multiple of a character χ of N. Then every matrix coefficient of the induced representation Uπ vanishes at infinity modulo the kernel of Uπ providing that the following two conditions hold:

  • i) N is almost-connected (finite modulo its connected component).

  • ii) The subgroup Hk is “regularly related” to the diagonal subgroup D in Gk for at least one integer k ≧ k0 where k0 is determined by G and H.
