In a project of quantization, I come up with a finite dimensional representation of $so(d)$ that I wish to find some decent references for it. I guess it could have been studied thoroughly in representation theory field with a proper name addressed. I understand for classic Lie algebra, we can certainly compute the character for such representation and address it with the Dynkin coefficients, but I'm more looking for references of related study that orbits as symbolic manifold which can be quantized with such representation. My interested representation of $so(d)$ is as following. Consider the generators of $so(d+1)$ denoted $M_{\mu \nu}$ for $\mu,\nu=1 \dots d+1$, and these generators are divided into two sets, $g=\{M_{i,j}| i,j=1\dots d\}$ and $g^*=\{M_{i,d+1}| i=1\dots d\}$, the representation $$\pi:(g^*,g)\rightarrow g^*$$ acts by conjugation $$\pi(x)g^*=xg^*x^{-1}\ \mathrm{for}\ x\in g.$$ When $d=3$, this is exactly the coadjoint representation of $so(3)$. According to Kirillov's orbit method, the coadjoint orbit assembles a sympletic manifold as a sphere, and an unitary irreducible representation corresponding to the orbit can be found as a proper quantization of the sphere, which is just an unirrep of $su(2)$ in this case. This is the well-known fuzzy sphere. However, you see immediately $g^*$ doesn't have enough generators as in $g$ when $d>3$, so it can't be coadjoint to $so(d)$. I'm wondering if there's a proper name for the representation of $so(d)$ from $so(d+1)$ as described, and any decent references related? I'm also interesting to know if the orbit method applies here for higher dimensional sphere $S^{d-1}$ with orbits on $g^*$. Please forgive my phrasing and let me know if the question isn't clear to you. I'm not a mathematician.
