    Let \(X\) be a complex manifold with an integral symplectic form \(\omega \) and \(G\) a connected real semisimple Lie group with finite center. The problem studied in this paper consists in the geometric quantization of a \(G\)-invariant form \(\omega \) in the case \(X=G\times t_0\) with \(t_0\) the Lie algebra of a maximal torus \(T\). The main tool of this analysis is a modified version \(\mathbb{D}\) of Konstant's cubic Dirac operator. So, in Section 3 the Dirac cohomology of \(L^2(G)\) is computed and an orthogonal sum decomposition of \(\mathrm{Ker }\mathbb{D}\) is obtained. Another important tool consists in \textit{models of discrete series} which are special unitary \(G\)-representations.
