Mean value properties for eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on symmetric spaces (Q2901670)

The present paper is devoted to the extension of one of the author's result in \({\mathbb R}^n\) to symmetric spaces of arbitrary rank. More precisely, the connection of the solutions of the Helmholtz equation with the zeros of a Bessel function of the first kind in \({\mathbb R}^n,\) such as the analogue of the above result in the symmetric space of the first order are obtained by the author earlier. Now we give the more general result for arbitrary symmetric space. Namely, let \(X=G/K\) be a symmetric space of the noncompact type with complex group \(G\). Then it is stated that for every locally integrable function on \(X\) and for some sequence \(\{r_q\},\) \(q\in {\mathbb N},\) connected with the zeros of the Bessel function of the first order, some equality of the Laplace-Beltrami type is equivalent to the series of the integrals of zero under all of the balls \(B_{r_q}\) and consisting as the parameter \(g\in G,\) where, in particular, \(g\) have to be taken all of the values from the group \(G\).
