Abstract

On a compact Kähler manifold, there is a canonical action of a Lie-superalgebra on the space of differential forms. It is generated by the differentials, the Lefschetz operator, and the adjoints of these operators. We determine the asymptotic distribution of irreducible representations of this Lie-superalgebra on the eigenspaces of the Laplace--Beltrami operator. Because of the high degree of symmetry, the Laplace--Beltrami operator on forms can not be quantum ergodic. We show that, after taking these symmetries into account, quantum ergodicity holds for the Laplace--Beltrami operator and for the Spin$^\cbb$-Dirac operators if the unitary frame flow is ergodic. The assumptions for our theorem are known to be satisfied for instance for negatively curved Kähler manifolds of odd complex dimension.
