Let \(G\) be a semisimple Lie group with a maximal compact subgroup \(K\). Suppose that \(rk(G) = rk(K)\) so that \(G\) has discrete series representations. In the special case of holomorphic discrete series, Harish-Chandra's construction allows a very explicit description of non-zero elements in the representation space as well as an explicit description of the action of the Lie algebra of \(G\). However, for general non-holomorphic discrete series, such matters are no longer nearly as clear. This paper attempts to find a middle ground between holomorphic discrete series and the general discrete series. The author studies a class of non-holomorphic discrete series for which a global realization is concrete enough to allow an explicit understanding of the action of the Lie algebra of \(G\) as well as an explicit construction of non-zero elements in the representation space. The Vogan-Zuckerman realization of discrete series is employed and an explicit complex for computing the homology on the level of a \(K\) module is used. Using results of Duflo and Vergne, it is possible to describe the action of the Lie algebra of \(G\) as well. The class of holomorphic discrete series studied in this paper are those where the representation can be realized in homology of degree \(1\). This generalizes the case of the holomorphic discrete series where the representations can be realized in homology of degree \(0\).
