Abstract
Various properties of two kinds of massless representations of the n-conformal (or (n+1)-De Sitter) group [Formula: see text] are investigated for n≥2. It is found that, for space-time dimensions n≥3, the situation is quite similar to the one of the n=4 case for Sn-massless representations of the n-De Sitter group [Formula: see text]. These representations are the restrictions of the singletons of [Formula: see text]. The main difference is that they are not contained in the tensor product of two UIRs with the same sign of energy when n>4, whereas it is the case for another kind of massless representations. Finally some examples of Gupta–Bleuler triplets are given for arbitrary spin and n≥3.
