A unitary irreducible representation of $SU(2,2)$ is constructed and subgroups of physical interest are discussed. The Universal Enveloping Algebra of $su(2,2)$ also allows to construct group structures $(SU(1,1), SO(3,2), Spin(3,2))$ whose representations separate integers and half-integers values of the spin $j$. Appropriate $L^2$--functions spaces are realized inside the support spaces of all these representations. Operators acting on these $L^2$-functions spaces belong thus to the corresponding Universal Enveloping Algebra.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-02-21T06:57:40.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "jacobi polynomials", "wigner d-matrices", "lie groups", "functions spaces belong", "representations separate integers" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 21, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1282314, "adsabs": "2014arXiv1402.5217C" } } }
