The operator algebras of a new family of relativistic geometric models of the relativistic oscillator [I. I. Cot{breve a}escu, Int. J. Mod. Phys. A {bold 12}, 3545 (1997)] are studied. It is shown that, generally, the operator of number of quanta and the pair of shift operators of each model are the generators of a nonunitary representation of the so(1,2) algebra, except for a special case when this algebra becomes the standard of the nonrelativistic harmonic oscillator. {copyright} {ital 1997 American Institute of Physics.}
