Abstract: We give an explicit expression of a two-parameter family of Flensted-Jensen's functions $\Psi_{\mu,\alpha}$ on a concrete realization of the universal covering group of $U(1,1)$. We prove that these functions are, up to a phase factor, radial eigenfunctions of the Landau Hamiltonian on the hyperbolic disc with a magnetic field strength proportional to $\mu$, and corresponding to the eigenvalue $4\alpha( \alpha-1)$.

Keywords: Flensted-Jensen's functions, universal covering group, Landau Hamiltonian, hyperbolic disc
