In mathematics, a quaternionic discrete series representation is a discrete series representation of a semisimple Lie group G associated with a quaternionic structure on the symmetric space of G. They were introduced by Gross and Wallach (1994, 1996).

Quaternionic representations are analogous to holomorphic discrete series representations, which exist when the symmetric space of the group has a complex structure.
