Abstract
Finite and Infinite-dimensional representations of symmetry algebras play a significant role in determining the spectral properties of physical Hamiltonians. In this paper, we introduce and apply a practical method to construct infinite dimensional representations of certain polynomial algebras which appear in the context of quantum superintegrable systems. Explicit construction of these representations is a non-trivial task due to the non-linearity of the polynomial algebras. Our method has similarities with the induced module construction approach in the context of Lie algebras and allows the construction of states of the superintegrable systems beyond the reach of separation of variables. Our main focus is the representations of the polynomial algebras underlying superintegrable systems in 2D Darboux spaces. We are able to construct a large number of states in terms of complicated expressions of Airy, Bessel and Whittaker functions which would be difficult to obtain in other ways.
