Abstract

In this paper, we construct a new class of modules for the Schr\"{o}dinger algebra \mS\mS, called quasi-Whittaker module. Different from \cite{[ZC]}, the quasi-Whittaker module is not induced by the Borel subalgebra of the Schr\"{o}dinger algebra related with the triangular decomposition, but its Heisenberg subalgebra \mH\mH. We prove that, for a simple \mS\mS-module VV, VV is a quasi-Whittaker module if and only if VV is a locally finite \mH\mH-module; Furthermore, we classify the simple quasi-Whittaker modules by the elements with the action similar to the center elements in U(\mS)U(\mS) and their quasi-Whittaker vectors. Finally, we characterize arbitrary quasi-Whittaker modules.
