Differential recursion relations for Laguerre functions on Hermitian matrices

Abstract: In our previous papers cite{doz1,doz2} we studied Laguerre functions and polynomials on symmetric cones

O m e g a = H / L

. The Laguerre functions

e l l_{m a t h b f n}^{u}

,

m a t h b f n i n m a t h b f L a m b d a

, form an orthogonal basis in

L^{2} (O m e g a, d m u_{u})^{L}

and are related via the Laplace transform to an orthogonal set in the representation space of a highest weight representations

(p i_{u}, m a t h c a l H_{u})

of the automorphism group

G

corresponding to a tube domain

T (O m e g a)

. In this article we consider the case where

O m e g a

is the space of positive definite Hermitian matrices and

G = m a t h r m S U (n, n)

. We describe the Lie algebraic realization of

p i_{u}

acting in

L^{2} (O m e g a, d m u_{u})

and use that to determine explicit differential equations and recurrence relations for the Laguerre functions.
