Berezin symbols and spectral measures of representation operators

Abstract

Let $G$ be a Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and let $\pi$ be a unitary representation of $G$ realized on a reproducing kernel Hilbert space. We use Berezin quantization to study spectral measures associated with operators $-id\pi (X)$ for $X\in \mathfrak{g}$. As an application, we show how results about contractions of Lie group representations give rise to results on convergence of sequences of spectral measures. We give some examples including contractions of $SU(1,1)$ and $SU(2)$ to the Heisenberg group.
