| Popis: | This paper builds on our previous work in which we showed that, for all connected semisimple linear Lie groups $G$ acting on a non-compactly causal symmetric space $M = G/H$, every irreducible unitary representation of $G$ can be realized by boundary value maps of holomorphic extensions in distributional sections of a vector bundle over $M$. In the present paper we discuss this procedure for the connected Lorentz group $G = SO_{1,d}(R)_e$ acting on de Sitter space $M = dS^d$. We show in particular that the previously constructed nets of real subspaces satisfy the locality condition. Following ideas of Bros and Moschella from the 1990's, we show that the matrix-valued spherical function that corresponds to our extension process extends analytically to a large domain $G_C^{cut}$ in the complexified group $G_C = \SO_{1,d}(C)$, which for $d = 1$ specializes to the complex cut plane $C \setminus (-\infinity, 0]$. A number of special situations is discussed specifically: (a) The case $d = 1$, which closely corresponds to standard subspaces in Hilbert spaces, (b) the case of scalar-valued functions, which for $d > 2$ is the case of spherical representations, for which we also describe the jump singularities of the holomorphic extensions on the cut in de Sitter space, (c) the case $d = 3$, where we obtain rather explicit formulas for the matrix-valued spherical functions.
