The resonances of the Capelli operators for small split orthosymplectic dual pairs
Let $(G,G')$ be a reductive dual pair in $Sp(W)$ with rank $G\leq$ rank $G'$ and $G'$ semisimple. The image of the Casimir element of the universal enveloping algebra of $G'$ under the Weil representation $ω$ is a Capelli operator. It is a hermitian operator acting on the smooth vectors of the representation space of $ω$. We compute the resonances of a natural multiple of a translation of this operator for small split orthosymplectic dual pairs. The corresponding resonance representations turn out to be $GG'$-modules in Howe's correspondence. We determine them explicitly.
