Abstract

Conformal Galilei Algebras labeled by d,d,\ell (where dd is the number of space dimensions and \ell denotes a spin-{\ell} representation w.r.t. the sl(2)\mathfrak{sl}(2) subalgebra) admit two types of central extensions, the ordinary one (for any dd and half-integer \ell) and the exotic central extension which only exists for d=2d=2 and N{\ell}\in\mathbb{N}. For both types of central extensions invariant second-order PDEs with continuous spectrum were constructed in [1]. It was later proved in [2] that the ordinary central extensions also lead to oscillator-like PDEs with discrete spectrum. We close in this paper the existing gap, constructing \textcolor{black}{a new class of second-order invariant PDEs for the exotic centrally extended CGAs; they admit a discrete and bounded spectrum when applied to a lowest weight representation. These PDEs are markedly different with respect to their ordinary counterparts. The =1{\ell}=1 case (which is the prototype of this class of extensions, just like the =12\ell=\frac{1}{2} Schr\"odinger algebra is the prototype of the ordinary centrally extended CGAs) is analyzed in detail.
