We study Hilbert space aspects of explicit eigenfunctions for analytic difference operators that arise in the context of relativistic two-particle Calogero-Moser systems. We restrict attention to integer coupling constants
g/{(h/2π)}, for which no reflection occurs. It is proved that the eigenfunction transforms are isometric, provided a certain dimensionless parameter
a varies over a bounded interval (0,
amax), whereas isometry is shown to be violated for generic
a larger than
amax. The anomaly is encoded in an explicit finite-rank operator, whose rank increases to ∞ as
a goes to ∞.
