The Penney-Fujiwara Plancherel Formula for Gelfand Pairs

Gelfand pairs

Let K ⊂ G be a compact subgroup of a real Lie group G. Denote by D(X) thealgebra of G-invariant differential operators on the homogeneous space X = G/K. ThenX is called commutative or the pair (G,K) is called a Gelfand pair if the algebra D(X)is commutative. Symmetric Riemannian homogeneous spaces introduced by Élie Cartanand weakly symmetric homogeneous spaces introduced by Sel...

The Uncertainty Principle for Gelfand Pairs

We extend the classical Uncertainty Principle to the context of Gelfand pairs. The Gelfand pair setting includes riemannian symmetric spaces, compact topological groups, and locally compact abelian groups. If the locally compact abelian group is Rn we recover a sharp form of the classical Heisenberg uncertainty principle. Section

This is a summary of the lectures delivered on Special Functions and Linear Representation of Lie Groups at the NSF-CBMS Research Conference at East Carolina University in March 5-9, 1979. The entire lectures will be published by the American Mathematical Society as a conference monograph in Mathematics.

The plancherel formula for sl(2) over a local field.

More than two decades ago, in his classical paper on the irreducible unitary representations of the Lorentz group, V. Bargmann initiated the concrete study of Fourier analysis on real Lie groups and obtained the analogue of the classical Fourier expansion theorem in the case of the Lorentz group. Since then the general theory for real semisimple Lie groups has been extensively developed, chiefl...
