Extract
If G is the group of holomorphic automorphisms of a bounded symmetric domain, then G has a distinguished class of irreducible unitary representations called the holomorphic discrete series of G. These representations have been studied by Harish-Chandra in [7]. On the Lie algebra level, the Harish-Chandra modules corresponding to the holomorphic discrete series representations are highest weight modules. Even for G as above, it turns out that not all the unitary highest weight modules belong to the holomorphic discrete series but there exists a condition on the highest weight which characterizes the holomorphic discrete series among the unitary highest weight representations. They can be defined as those unitary highest weight representations with square integrable matrix coefficients.
