Abstract: For any pseudo-Riemannian hyperbolic space X over mathbbR,mathbbC,mathbbH or mathbbO, we show that the resolvent R(z)=(BoxzoperatornameId)1 of the Laplace-Beltrami operator Box on X can be extended meromorphically across the spectrum of Box as a family of operators Ccinfty(X)omathcalD(X). Its poles are called resonances and we determine them explicitly in all cases. For each resonance, the image of the corresponding residue operator in mathcalD(X) forms a representation of the isometry group of X, which we identify with a subrepresentation of a degenerate principal series. Our study includes in particular the case of even functions on de Sitter and Anti-de Sitter spaces. For Riemannian symmetric spaces analogous results were obtained by Miatello-Will and Hilgert-Pasquale. The main qualitative differences between the Riemannian and the non-Riemannian setting are that for non-Riemannian spaces the resolvent can have poles of order two, it can have a pole at the branching point of the covering to which R(z) extends, and the residue representations can be infinite-dimensional.
