On the irreducible components of the solutions of Matsuo's differential equations
Studying the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation in conformal field theory, \textit{A. Matsuo} found a new system of differential equations of first order for a function taking values in the group algebra \(\mathbb{C} [W]\) of the Weyl group \(W\) associated with an arbitrary root system in [Invent. Math. 110, 95-121 (1992; Zbl 0801.35131)]. His system is equivalent to the system of the differential equations given by Heckman and Opdam which is a deformation of the system satisfied by the zonal spherical function of the Riemannian symmetric space \(G/K\) of non compact type (loc. cit., Theorem 5.4.1). Let \(\Phi\) be a solution of Matsuo's equation. Let \(\widehat {W}\) denote the set of the equivalence classes of the irreducible representations of \(W\). For \(\delta\in \widehat {W}\) let \(E_\delta\) be a representation space of \(\delta\) and \(n_\delta= \dim E_\delta\). Then \(\mathbb{C} [W]= \sum_{\delta\in \widehat {W}} \mathbb{C} [W]_\delta\), where \(\mathbb{C}[W]_\delta= \bigoplus^{n_\delta}_{i=1} E_{\delta,i}\) and \(E_{\delta, i}\) is equivalent to \(E_\delta\) \((1\leq i\leq n_\delta)\). Let \(\delta_0\) be the trivial representation and \(\Phi_0\) be the \(\mathbb{C}[W]_{\delta_0}\)-component of \(\Phi\). The correspondence \(\Phi\to \Phi_{\delta_0}\) gives the equivalence of the above two systems. For \(\delta\in \widehat {W}\) we consider the other \(\mathbb{C}[W]_\delta\)-components \(\Phi_\delta\) of \(\Phi\). In this paper we obtain a system of differential equations satisfied by \(\Phi_\delta\).
