Abstract: We provide a uniform construction of L2-models for all small unitary representations in degenerate principal series of semisimple Lie groups which are induced from maximal parabolic subgroups with abelian nilradical. This generalizes previous constructions to the case of a maximal parabolic subgroup which is not necessarily conjugate to its opposite, and hence the previously used Jordan algebra methods have to be generalized to Jordan pairs. The crucial ingredients for the construction of the L2-models are the Lie algebra action and the spherical vector. Working in the so-called Fourier transformed picture of the degenerate principal series, the Lie algebra action is given in terms of Bessel operators on Jordan pairs. We prove that precisely for those parameters of the principal series where small quotients occur, the Bessel operators are tangential to certain submanifolds. Further, we show that the small quotients are unitarizable if and only if these submanifolds carry equivariant measures. In this case we can express the spherical vectors in terms of multivariable K-Bessel functions, and some delicate estimates for these Bessel functions imply the existence of the L2-models.
