$K$-FINITE SOLUTIONS TO CONFORMALLY INVARIANT SYSTEMS OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

Abstract

Let $G$ be a connected semisimple linear real Lie group, and $Q$ (resp. $K$) a real parabolic subgroup (resp. maximal compact subgroup) of $G$. The space of $K$-finite solutions to a conformally invariant system of differential equations on a line bundle over the real flag manifold $G/Q$ is studied. The general theory is then applied to certain second order systems on the flag manifold that corresponds to the Heisenberg parabolic subgroup in a split simple Lie group.
