Abstract:
In connection with applications of tlie ladder representations the question about
the completeness of a set of commuting operators with a definite physical interpretation
is investigated. A suitable transformation of these operators is introduced, by means
of which the problem under consideration is reduced to investigation of a system of
functional equations. A number of theorems about this system are proved, from which
the completeness of the mentioned set follows. As a result, we have established that
the ladder representations of the Lie algebra of $U(6,6)$ can be given in terms of a physical
complete set of commuting operators.
