Review text

In this paper the author considers the problem of quantizing an \(SO(n+1,2)\)-action on a symplectic manifold given by the space M of nonzero cotangent vectors to the unit sphere \(S^ n\). In this case there are no \(SO(n+1,2)\)-invariant polarizations, so that the procedure of geometric quantization does not work. The author discusses the Lie algebra realized as a Poisson subalgebra. By integration of the associated Hamiltonian vector fields he gets the symplectic action of \(SO(n+1,2)\) on M. For the representation of the Lie algebra a pair of transversal polarizations is used given by the vertical polarization Q and a partially complex polarization P invariant under the geodesic flow. A Fourier-like transformation \({\mathcal F}\) from a space of P-horizontal sections to a space of Q-horizontal sections is constructed. By means of the intertwining operator \({\mathcal F}\) one gets an irreducible representation of the Lie algebra by skew-Hermitian operators on \(S^ n\).
