The Zuckerman functor provides a certain important class of unitary representations of real reductive Lie groups. We consider the restriction of these representations to reductive subgroups. T. Kobayashi introduced a nice framework for branching problems, the notion of "discretely decomposable restrictions." In this framework we obtain explicit branching formulas by using D-modules on the flag variety.
