Let $R$ be a root system of type BC in $\mathfrak a=\mathbb R^r$ of general positive multiplicity. We introduce certain canonical weight function on $\mathbb R^r$ which in the case of symmetric domains corresponds to the integral kernel of the Berezin transform. We compute its spherical transform and prove certain Bernstein-Sato type formula. This generalizes earlier work of Unterberger-Upmeier, van Dijk-Pevsner, Neretin and the author. Associated to the weight functions there are Heckman-Opdam orthogonal polynomials of Jacobi type on the compact torus, after a change of variables they form an orthogonal system on the non-compact space $\mathfrak a$. We consider their spherical transform and prove that they are the Macdonald-Koornwinder polynomials multiplied by the spherical transform of the canonical weight function. For rank one case this was proved earlier by Koornwinder.
We give a construction for three parameter family of Jack polynolials for the root system $BC_n$ through the generalized spherical functions on the symmetric space $GL(m+n)/GL(m)\times GL(n)$.
We introduce a new multivariate orthogonal polynomial which is a 2-parameter deformation of the spherical polynomial by harmonic analysis on symmetric cone. This is also regarded as a multivariate analogue of the circular Jacobi polynomial. Further, the weight function of its orthogonality relation coincides with the circular Jacobi ensemble defined by Bourgade et al.. We also obtain its main properties : generating function, pseudo differential equation and deteraminant expression.
We show a curious identity on root systems which gives the evaluation of the volume of the spherical simpleces cut by the cone generated by simple roots.
In this paper, we extend the iterative expression for the generalized spherical functions associated to the root systems of type $A$ previously obtained beyond regular elements. We also provide the corresponding expression in the flat case. From there, we derive a Laplace-type representation for the generalized spherical functions associated to the root systems of type $A$ in the Dunkl setting as well as in the trigonometric Dunkl setting. This representation leads us to describe precisely the support of the generalized Abel transform. Thanks to a recent result of Rejeb, this allows us to give…
Brion proved that the valuation cone of a complex spherical variety is a fundamental domain for a finite reflection group, called the little Weyl group. The principal goal of this paper is to generalize this fundamental theorem to fields of characteristic unequal to 2. We also prove a weaker version which holds in characteristic 2, as well. Our main tool is a generalization of Akhiezer's classification of spherical rank-1-varieties.
Let G be a simple complex algebraic group and let K be a reductive subgroup of G such that the coordinate ring of G/K is a multiplicity free G-module. We consider the G-algebra structure of C[G/K], and study the decomposition into irreducible summands of the product of irreducible G-submodules in C[G/K]. When the spherical roots of G/K generate a root system of type A we propose a conjectural decomposition rule, which relies on a conjecture of Stanley on the multiplication of Jack symmetric functions. With the exception of one case, we show that the rule holds true whenever the root system gen…
We study in this paper the restricted roots for a class of spherical homogeneous spaces of semisimple groups which includes simply connected symmetric spaces. For these spaces we give a detailed description (case by case) of the set of roots of the group associated with each restricted root of the space (the nest of the restricted root). As an application, we obtain a refinement of the Weyl dimension formula in the case of spherical representations, expressing the dimension as a product over the set of indivisible positive restricted roots.
Let $Λ_Q$ be the preprojective algebra of a finite acyclic quiver $Q$ of non-Dynkin type and $D^b(\mathrm{rep}^n Λ_Q)$ be the bounded derived category of finite dimensional nilpotent $Λ_Q$-modules. We define spherical twist functors over the root category $\mathcal{R}_{Λ_Q}$ of $D^b(\mathrm{rep}^n Λ_Q)$ and then realize the Weyl group associated to $Q$ as certain subquotient of the automorphism group of the Ringel-Hall Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}(\mathcal{R}_{Λ_Q})$ of $\mathcal{R}_{Λ_Q}$ induced by spherical twist functors. We also present a conjectural relation between certain Lie subalgebras …
In this paper, we study a family of rank two false theta series associated to the root lattice of type $A_2$. We show that these functions appear as Fourier coefficients of a meromorphic Jacobi form of negative definite matrix index. Hypergeometric $q$-series identities are also obtained.
We present an explicit product formula for the spherical functions of the compact Gelfand pairs $(G,K_1)= (SU(p+q), SU(p)\times SU(q))$ with $p\ge 2q$, which can be considered as the elementary spherical functions of one-dimensional $K$-type for the Hermitian symmetric spaces $G/K$ with $K= S(U(p)\times U(q))$. Due to results of Heckman, they can be expressed in terms of Heckman-Opdam Jacobi polynomials of type $BC_q$ with specific half-integer multiplicities. By analytic continuation with respect to the multiplicity parameters we obtain positive product formulas for the extensions of these sp…
Majorization is a partial order on real vectors which plays an important role in a variety of subjects, ranging from algebra and combinatorics to probability and statistics. In this paper, we consider a generalized notion of majorization associated to an arbitrary root system $Φ,$ and show that it admits a natural characterization in terms of the values of spherical functions on any Riemannian symmetric space with restricted root system $Φ.$
We present explicit Pieri formulas for Macdonald's spherical functions (or generalized Hall-Littlewood polynomials associated with root systems) and their $q$-deformation the Macdonald polynomials. For the root systems of type $A$, our Pieri formulas recover the well-known Pieri formulas for the Hall-Littlewood and Macdonald symmetric functions due to Morris and Macdonald as special cases.
Starting from Jacobi-Trudi's type determinental expressions for the Schur functions corresponding to types $B,C$ and $D,$ we define a natural $q$-analogue of the multiplicity $[V(λ):M(μ)]$ when $M(μ)$ is a tensor product of row or column shaped modules defined by $μ$. We prove that these $q$-multiplicities are equal to certain Kostka-Foulkes polynomials related to the root systems $C$ or $D$. Finally we derive formulas expressing the associated multiplicities in terms of Kostka numbers.
In order to construct the inverse mapping of the period mapping for the primitive form for the semi-universal deformation of a simple elliptic singularity, K.Saito introduced in [5] the ``flat structure'' for the extended affine root system. In section 3, we construct explicitly the flat theta invariants in the case of type $E_6$ using the Jacobi form introduced by Wirthmüller [7]. Combining the results of Kato [3], Noumi [4] (explicit description of the flat coordinates), this gives an answer to Jacobi's inversion problem (up to linear isomorphism) of this period mapping for a simple elliptic…
We study Apollonian circle packings in relation to a certain rank 4 indefinite Kac-Moody root system $Φ$. We introduce the generating function $Z(\mathbf{s})$ of a packing, an exponential series in four variables with an Apollonian symmetry group, which relates to Weyl-Kac characters of $Φ$. By exploiting the presence of affine and Lorentzian hyperbolic root subsystems of $Φ$, with automorphic Weyl denominators, we express $Z(\mathbf{s})$ in terms of Jacobi theta functions and the Siegel modular form $Δ_5$. We also show that the domain of convergence of $Z(\mathbf{s})$ is the Tits cone of $Φ$,…
We compute the Harish-Chandra $c$-function for a generic class of rank-one purely non-compact Riemannian symmetric superspaces $X=G/K$ in terms of Euler $Γ$ functions, proving that it is meromorphic. Compared to the even case, the poles of the $c$-function are shifted into the right half-space. We derive the full asymptotic Harish-Chandra series expansion of the spherical superfunctions on $X$. In the case where the multiplicity of the simple root is an even negative number, they have a closed expression as Jacobi polynomials for an unusual choice of parameters.
For any reduced crystallographic root system, we introduce a unitary representation of the (extended) affine Hecke algebra given by discrete difference-reflection operators acting in a Hilbert space of complex functions on the weight lattice. It is shown that the action of the center under this representation is diagonal on the basis of Macdonald spherical functions. As an application, we compute an explicit Pieri formula for these spherical functions.
