Dunkl operators as convolutions (Q542268)

Let \(\varphi \) be an analytic function of entire type with \(\varphi (0)=0\) and define the operator \(A\) on \(H(\mathbb C)\), the space of entire functions, by \[ A(f)=\frac1z\sum_{k=0}^\infty \varphi (k)c_kz^k,\quad f(z)=\sum_{k=1}^\infty c_kz^k\in H(\mathbb C). \] The series \(\sum_{k=0}^\infty \varphi (k)c_kz^k\) is called the Hadamard product. Using the fact that the Laplace transform establishes an isomorphism between the dual of \(H(\mathbb C)\) and the space of entire functions of exponential type, it is shown that the Dunkl operator \[ D(f)(z)=f'(z)+\frac c z(f(z)-f(-z)) \] on \(H(\mathbb C)\) can written as such an operator \(A\). It is shown that the kernel of \(A\) is trivial if and only if \(\varphi \) has no nonnegative zeros; in particular, the kernel of the Dunkl operator consists of the constant functions. If, however, the operator \(A\) is considered on the Riemann surface of the logarithm, then the kernel of \(A\) is the closed linear span of the functions \(z^{\lambda _j}(\ln z)^k\), \(k=0,\dots,m_j-1\), where the \(\lambda _j\) are the zeros of \(\varphi \) and \(m_j\) are the corresponding multiplicities.
