Abstract: Let G be a connected semisimple Lie group with finite centre and K be a maximal compact subgroup thereof. Given a function u on G, we define mathcalAu to be the root mean square average over K, acting both on the left and the right, of u. We show that for all unitary representations pi of G, there exists a unique minimal positive-real-valued spherical function philambda on G such that mathcalAlanglepi(cdot)xi,etaangleleqVertxiVertmathcalHpiVertetaVertmathcalHpiphilambda. This estimate has nice features of both asymptotic pointwise estimates and Lebesgue space estimates; indeed it is equivalent to pointwise estimates vertlanglepi(cdot)xi,etaanglevertleqC(xi,eta),philambda for K-finite or smooth vectors xi and eta, and it exhibits different decay rates in different directions at infinity in G. Further, if we assume the latter inequality with arbitrary C(xi,eta), we can prove the former inequality and then return to the latter inequality with explicit knowledge of C(xi,eta). On the other hand, it holds everywhere in G, in contrast to asymptotic estimates which are not global. We also provide some applications.
