The central theme of this work is the development of a number of analogs of Hardy's theorem in settings arising from noncommutative harmonic analysis. A tutorial introduction gives the requisite background material. The techniques used to prove the main results run the gamut of modern harmonic analysis such as representation theory, spherical functions, Hecke--Bochner formulas and special functions. Graduate students and researchers in harmonic analysis will greatly benefit from this book.

Über diesen Titel

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Motivating this interesting monograph is the development of a number of analogs of Hardy's theorem in settings arising from noncommutative harmonic analysis. This is the central theme of this work.
Specifically, it is devoted to connections among various theories arising from abstract harmonic analysis, concrete hard analysis, Lie theory, special functions, and the very interesting interplay between the noncompact groups that underlie the geometric objects in question and the compact rotation groups that act as symmetries of these objects.
A tutorial introduction is given to the necessary background material. The second chapter establishes several versions of Hardy's theorem for the Fourier transform on the Heisenberg group and characterizes the heat kernel for the sublaplacian. In Chapter Three, the Helgason Fourier transform on rank one symmetric spaces is treated. Most of the results presented here are valid in the general context of solvable extensions of H-type groups.
The techniques used to prove the main results run the gamut of modern harmonic analysis such as representation theory, spherical functions, Hecke-Bochner formulas and special functions.
Graduate students and researchers in harmonic analysis will greatly benefit from this book.
