Abstract

Let G/KG/K be a Hermitian symmetric space and VτV_\tau an irreducible representation of KK. We study the ring DG(G/K,Vτ)\mathcal D^G(G/K, V_\tau) of GG-invariant differential operators on sections of vector bundles G×(K,τ)VτG\times_{(K, \tau)} V_\tau over G/KG/K defined by a finite-dimensional representation (Vτ,τ)(V_\tau, \tau) of KK. We classify irreducible representations (Vτ,τ)(V_\tau, \tau) such that DG(G/K,Vτ)\mathcal D^G(G/K, V_\tau) is commutative. We construct eigenfunctions for the differential operators and study the invariance property of the eigenvalues under the Weyl group for the restricted real root system of GG.
