Abstract

Let \bbK=R,C,H\bbK=\mathbb R, \mathbb C, \mathbb H be the field of real, complex or quaternionic numbers and Mp,q(\bbK)M_{p, q}(\bbK) the vector space of all p×qp\times q-matrices. Let XX be the matrix unit ball in Mnr,r(\bbK)M_{n-r, r}(\bbK) consisting of contractive matrices. As a symmetric space, X=G/K=O(nr,r)/O(nr)×O(r)X=G/K=O(n-r, r)/O(n-r)\times O(r), U(nr,r)/U(nr)×U(r)U(n-r, r)/U(n-r)\times U(r) and respectively Sp(nr,r)/Sp(nr)×Sp(r)Sp(n-r, r)/Sp(n-r)\times Sp(r). The matrix unit ball y0y_0 in Mrr,rM_{r^\prime-r, r} with rn1r^\prime \le n-1 is a totally geodesic submanifold of XX and let YY be the set of all GG-translations of the submanifold y0y_0. The set YY is then a manifold and an affine symmetric space. We consider the Radon transform Rf(y)\mathcal Rf(y) for functions fC0(X)f\in C_0^\infty(X) defined by integration of ff over the subset yy, and the dual transform RtF(x),xX\mathcal R^t F(x), x\in X for functions F(y)F(y) on YY. We find inversion formulas by constructing explicit certain invariant differential operators.
