Abstract: This note is an attempt to give an answer for the following old I.M. Gelfand's question: why some important problems of integral geometry (e.g., the Radon transform and others) are related to harmonic analysis on groups, but for other quite similar problems such relations are not clear? In the note we examine standard problems of integral geometry generating harmonic analysis (the Plancherel theorem etc.) on pairs of commutative hypergroups that are in a duality of Pontryagin's type. As a result new meaningful examples of hypergroups are constructed.

Review text

The paper under review deals with the following old question of I. M. Gelfand: Why are some important problems in integral geometry related to harmonic analysis on groups but for other quite similar problems such relations are not clear? In the paper, some standard problems in integral geometry generating harmonic analysis on pairs of commutative hypergroups lying in duality of Pontryagin's type are indicated. As a result, some new meaningful examples of hypergroups are constructed.
