In an earlier paper, the first two authors have shown that the convolution of a function $f$ continuous on the closure of a Cartan domain and a $K$-invariant finite measure $\mu$ on that domain is again continuous on the closure, and, moreover, its restriction to any boundary face $F$ depends only on the restriction of $f$ to $F$ and is equal to the convolution, in $F$, of the latter restriction with some measure ${\mu }_F$ on $F$ uniquely determined by $\mu$. In this article, we give an explicit formula for ${\mu }_F$ in terms of $F$,...

Let $D$ be a bounded symmetric domain in ${ℂ}^2$ and $\Gamma \subset {\mathrm{Aut}}^{0}D$ an irreducible arithmetic lattice which operates freely on $D$. We prove that the cusp–compactification $\bar{X}$ of $X=D/\Gamma$ is hyperbolic.

In 1945 the first author introduced the classes $H^p\left(\alpha \right)$, 1 ≤ p<∞, α > -1, of holomorphic functions in the unit disk with finite integral (1) ∬ |f(ζ)|p (1-|ζ|²)α dξ dη < ∞ (ζ=ξ+iη) and established the following integral formula for $f\in H^p\left(\alpha \right)$: (2) f(z) = (α+1)/π ∬ f(ζ) ((1-|ζ|²)α)/((1-zζ̅)2+α) dξdη, z∈ . We have established that the analogues of the integral representation (2) hold for holomorphic functions in Ω from the classes $L^p(\Omega ;{\left[K\left(w\right)\right]}^{\alpha }dm\left(w\right))$, where: 1) $\Omega =w=(w₁,...,w_n)\in {ℂ}^n:Imw₁>{\sum }_{k=2}^n\left|w_k\right|²$, $K\left(w\right)=Imw₁-{\sum }_{k=2}^n\left|w_k\right|²$; 2) Ω is the matrix domain consisting of those complex m...

Let D be a symmetric irreducible Siegel domain. Pluriharmonic functions satisfying a certain rather weak growth condition are characterized by r+2 operators (r+1 in the tube case), r being the rank of the underlying symmetric cone

The relationships between the JB*-triple structure of a complex spin factor S and the structure of the Hilbert space H associated to S are discussed. Every surjective linear isometry L of S can be uniquely represented in the form L(x) = mu.U(x) for some conjugation commuting unitary operator U on H and some mu belonging to C, |mu|=1. Automorphisms of S are characterized as those linear maps (continuity not assumed) that preserve minimal tripotents in S and the orthogonality relations among them.

Let $\mu$ be a measure on a domain $\Omega$ in ${ℂ}^n$ such that the Bergman space of holomorphic functions in $L^2(\Omega ,\mu )$ possesses a reproducing kernel $K(x,y)$ and $K(x,x)\&gt;0$$\forall x\in \Omega$. The Berezin transform associated to $\mu$ is the integral...

We realize closed geodesics on the real conformal compactification of the space V = Sym(2, ℝ) of all 2 × 2 real symmetric matrices as knots or 2-component links in $S^2\times S^1$ and show that these knots or links have certain types of symmetry of period 2.
