In [1], Zhelobenko introduced the concept of a Gauss decomposition ZtDZ of a topological group and gave characterizations of irreducible representations of the classical groups. In this setting, vectors of representation spaces are polynomial solutions of a system of differential equations and the problem of obtaining branching theorem with respect to a subgroup G0 is to find all polynomial solutions that are invariant under Z ∩ G0 and have dominant weight with respect to DG0
