Firstly we note that G-action on the homogeneous space G/H, where H is any one-dimensional subgroup of SL(2,R), is a linear-fractional transformation on hypercomplex numbers. Thus we investigate various hypercomplex characters of subgroups H. The correspondence between the structure of the group SL(2,R) and hypercomplex numbers can be illustrated in many other situations as well. We give examples of induced representations of SL(2,R) on spaces of hypercomplex valued functions, which are unitary in some sense. Raising/lowering operators for various subgroup prompt hypercomplex coefficients as well. The paper contains both English and Russian versions.
