The dunkel intertwining operator on spaces of functions and distributions and integral representation of its dual (Q4409764)

The Dunkl operators \(T_j\), \(j= 1,\dots, n\), in \(\mathbb{R}^n\) are defined here by \[ T_j f(x)= \partial f/\partial x_j+ \sum_p k(p) p_j\langle p,x\rangle^{-1}(f(x)- f(r_p(x)), \] where \(p\) belongs to a finite set in \(\mathbb{R}^n\setminus 0\), \(k(p)\) are suitable constants and \(r_p\) is the reflection on the hyperplane of \(\mathbb{R}^n\) orthogonal to \(p\). The intertwining operator \(V\) is defined by imposing \[ T_j V= V\partial/\partial x_j. \] The action of \(V\) on polynomials was studied by \textit{M. Rösler} [Duke Math. J. 98, 445-463 (1999; Zbl 0947.33013)]. The author shows here that \(V\) maps \(C^\infty(\mathbb{R}^n)\) into itself, with extension to Schwartz distributions. The inverse \(V^{-1}\) and the dual \({^tV}\) are also considered. Several properties are proved for \(V\), \(V^{-1}\), \({^tV}\), including integro-differential expressions and relations with the Fourier and Dunkl transform.
