Abstract
We study irreducible unitary \reps of and for a root of unity, which are finite dimensional. Among others, unitary \reps corresponding to all classical one-particle representations with integral weights are found for , with being large enough. In the "massless" case with spin bigger than or equal to 1 in 4 dimensions, they are unitarizable only after factoring out a subspace of "pure gauges", as classically. A truncated associative tensor product describing unitary many-particle representations is defined for .
