On Hardy and Bergman spaces on complex Ol'shanskiĭ semigroups (Q1271219)

Let \({\mathbf g}\) be a finite dimensional real Lie algebra. An element \(X \in {\mathbf g}\) is called elliptic if \(ad X\) is semisimple with eigenvalues in \(i\mathbb R\). To each open invariant convex cone \(W \subseteq {\mathbf g}\) consisting of elliptic elements one associates a so called Ol'shanskiĭ semigroup \(S = G Exp(iW)\) which is in particular a complex manifold containing \(G\) in its ``boundary''. In the paper under review analogues of Hardy spaces and Bergman spaces on such complex semigroups are studied. The main results are desintegrations of both spaces as direct integrals of irreducible unitary representations of the group \(G \times G\) which acts in a natural way on Hardy and Bergman space. The existence of such direct integral decompositions is derived from more general results on direct integral decompositions of \(G \times G\)-invariant Hilbert spaces of holomorphic functions which can be found in \textit{B. Krötz} [``The Plancherel theorem for biinvariant Hilbert spaces'' (to appear)] and which are based on integral representations of holomorphic positive definite kernels. Related results in this direction can be found in \textit{J. Faraut} and \textit{E. G. F. Thomas} [``Invariant Hilbert spaces of holomorphic functions'', J. Lie Theory (to appear)]. For the desintegration results for the Hardy and Bergman space the results in the present paper require that the group \(G\) is a (CA) Lie group, i.e.\ its adjoint group \(Ad(G) \subseteq Aut({\mathbf g})\) is closed. As shown in Chapter XIV of \textit{K. H. Neeb} [``Holomorphy and convexity in Lie theory'', de Gruyter, Expositions in Math. (1999)] the decomposition results on the Hardy spaces can be generalized to weighted Hardy spaces and to groups which are not necessarily (CA) groups. Here the method consists in a refinement of the method of central desintegration also used in the present paper. Several classes of examples are discussed in detail, where the reproducing kernels of Hardy and Bergman spaces are calculated. These examples do also cover cases where the group \(G\) is neither solvable nor reductive. In the last section it is shown that if \(W\) does not contain affine lines, then the reproducing kernels of Hardy and Bergman space are strictly positive definite in the sense that the evaluation functionals in the points of \(S\) are linearly independent.
