Abstract: Given a compact Gelfand pair (G,K) and a locally compact group L, we characterize the class P_K^sharp(G,L) of continuous positive definite functions f:G imes L o C which are bi-invariant in the G-variable with respect to K. The functions of this class are the functions having a uniformly convergent expansion sum_{varphiin Z} B(varphi)(u)varphi(x) for xin G,uin L, where the sum is over the space Z of positive definite spherical functions varphi:G oC for the Gelfand pair, and (B(varphi))_{varphiin Z} is a family of continuous positive definite functions on L such that sum_{varphiin Z}B(varphi)(e_L)<infty. Here e_L is the neutral element of the group L. For a compact abelian group G considered as a Gelfand pair (G,K) with trivial K={e_G}, we obtain a characterization of P(G imes L) in terms of Fourier expansions on the dual group widehat{G}. The result is described in detail for the case of the Gelfand pairs (O(d+1),O(d)) and (U(q),U(q-1)) as well as for the product of these Gelfand pairs. The result generalizes recent theorems of Berg-Porcu (2016) and Guella-Menegatto (2016)
