I want to just pass G_G in math mode, so it seems to me that \ifmmode

The macro should write G + lower index G for both math and non-math

so
\def\GG{\ifmmode G_G\else$G\low{G}$\fi}
or
\def\GG{\mathematics{G_G}}
now you do a check in \GG and then call for \GG again so \GG again does
a check etc etc ... you just enforce endless recursion

it all depends ... if you pass it in a way that it gets expanded you get
already expansion at the write
you could try \unexpanded\def\GG then
it's hard to say what happens unless one sees the whole application (for
which i have no time anyway)

compare these two:

\starttext
\edef\x{\GG}
\stoptext
and
\unexpanded\def\GG{\ifmmode G_G\else$\GG$\fi}

so it all depends on usage

Well, I intended replaced with $G_G$,

but stopped working when called from Lua (?!).
\def\GG{\ifmmode G_G\else$\GG$\fi}
define a macro \GG with replacement text
\ifmmode G_G\else$\GG$\fi
In your use in TeX, \if is expanded:
if we are in mmode then we have the expansion of G ,then _ and then G.
If we are not in mmode, then we have the expansion of $ , so we enter in
mmode and then we have the expansion of \GG again.
In this second level of expansion, we are in mmod for sure and so we end
again with G, _ and G.
We cannot know what happen in other situations.
For example, in
\edef\x{\GG} as shown by Hans,
at definition time the replacement text is expanded until possible.
If at definition time we are not in mmode,
this gives the endless sequence
\GG -\ifmmode G_G\else $\GG $\fi
{\ifmmode: (level 1) entered on line 9}
{false}
{\else: \ifmmode (level 1) entered on line 9}
\GG -\ifmmode G_G\else $\GG $\fi
{\ifmmode: (level 2) entered on line 9}
{false}
{\else: \ifmmode (level 2) entered on line 9}
\GG -\ifmmode G_G\else $\GG $\fi
{\ifmmode: (level 3) entered on line 9}
{false}
{\else: \ifmmode (level 3) entered on line 9}
\GG -\ifmmode G_G\else $\GG $\fi
because in this case the first $ is just accumulated, not interpretated ---
i.e. doesn't trig the change of state to math mode.
To avoid expansion we can say
\edef\x{\noexpand\GG}
which means that the replacement text of \x is \GG .
Perhaps we can see better here:
\def\HH{\ifmmode H_H\else$H_H$\fi}
\edef\x{\HH}
means,
if we are not in mmode when \x is defined,
\HH -\ifmmode H_H\else $H_H$\fi
{\ifmmode: (level 1) entered on line 10}
{false}
{\else: \ifmmode (level 1) entered on line 10}
{\fi: \ifmmode (level 1) entered on line 10}
{changing \x=undefined}
{into \x=macro:-$H_H$}
so the replacement text of \x is $H_H$
