description

We give a complete and explicit realization of the unitary irreducible representations of the universal covering group G of E(2), the Euclidean group in two dimensions, by deformation of the algebra of functions on the dual g* of the Lie algebra of G. We define an adapted Fourier transform for G which gives a natural description of the harmonic analysis of G.
