AbstractThe purpose for this short note is to describe the space of harmonic spinors on hyperbolicn-spaceHn. This is a natural continuation of the study of harmonic functions onHnin [Minemura] and [Helgason]—these results were generalized in the form of Helgason's conjecture, proved in [KKMOOT],—and of [Gaillard 1, 2], where harmonic forms onHnwere considered. The connection between invariant differential equations on a Riemannian semisimple symmetric spaceG/Kand homological aspects of the representation theory ofG, as exemplified in (8) below, does not seem to have been previously mentioned. This note is divided into three main parts respectively dedicated to the statement of the results, some reminders, and the proofs. I thank the referee for having suggested various improvements.

In the study of discontinuous groups for non-Riemannian homogeneous spaces, the idea of “continuous analogue” gives a powerful method (T. Kobayashi [Math. Ann. 1989]). For example, a semisimple symmetric space [Formula: see text] admits a discontinuous group which is not virtually abelian if and only if [Formula: see text] admits a proper [Formula: see text]-action (T. Okuda [J. Differ. Geom. 2013]). However, the action of discrete subgroups is not always approximated by that of connected groups. In this paper, we show that the theorem cannot be extended to general homogeneous spaces [Formula: see text] of reductive type. We give a counterexample in the case [Formula: see text].
