| contents | We construct, for spin $0,1,2$ tensor fields on S$^d$, a set of ladder operators that connect the distinct UIRs of SO$(d+1)$. This is achieved by relying on the conformal Killing vectors of S$^d$. For the case of spinning fields, the ladder operators generalize previous expressions with a compensating transformation necessary to preserve the transversality condition. We then extend the results to the Exceptional/Discrete UIRs of SO$(d,1)$, again relying on the conformal Killing vectors of de Sitter space. Our construction recovers the conventional conformal primary transformations for the scalar fields when the mass term leads to conformal coupling. A similar approach for the spin-2 field leads to the conformal-like operators found recently. |
