| contents | Petrecca and Röser (2018, \cite{Petrecca2019}), and Schueth (2017, \cite{Schueth2017}) had shown that for a generic $G$-invariant metric $g$ on certain compact homogeneous spaces $M=G/K$ (including symmetric spaces of rank 1 and some Lie groups), the spectrum of the Laplace-Beltrami operator $Δ_g$ was real $G$-simple. The same is not true for the complex version of $Δ_g$ when there is a presence of representations of complex or quaternionic type. We show that these types of representations induces a $Q_8$-action that commutes with the Laplacian in such way that $G$-properties of the real version of the operator have to be understood as $(Q_8 \times G)$-properties on its corresponding complex version. Also we argue that for symmetric spaces on rank $\geq 2$ there are algebraic symmetries on the corresponding root systems which relates distinct irreducible representations on the same eigenspace. |
