Abstract
The recently proposed infinite-dimensional Lie algebra as a model of a symmetry scheme is studied from the point of view of its representations. We construct the tensor product of two one-particle representations of this algebra and study the reduction problem. A new series of representations having non-linear mass formulas is found. Some physical consequences for two-particle states are also discussed.
