On models of irreducible unitary representations of compact Lie group SU(2) involving special functions
The authors construct models of the irreducible unitary representations of the Lie algebra su(2) in which the Lie algebra action is in terms of differential-difference operators. This leads to group theoretic derivations of a series of identities for hypergeometric functions in one and two variables.
