Abstract

We apply a special case, the restriction principle (for which we give a definition simpler than the usual one), of a basic result in functional analysis (the polar decomposition of an operator) in order to define Cμ,tC_{\mu, t}, the CC-version of the Segal-Bargmann transform, associated to a finite Coxeter group acting in RN\mathbb{R}^N and a given value t>0t>0 of Planck's constant, where μ\mu is a multiplicity function on the roots defining the Coxeter group. Then we immediately prove that Cμ,tC_{\mu, t} is a unitary isomorphism. To accomplish this we identify the reproducing kernel function of the appropriate Hilbert space of holomorphic functions. As consequences we prove that the Segal-Bargmann transforms for Versions AA, BB and DD are also unitary isomorphisms, though not by a direct application of the restriction principle. The point is that the CC-version is the the only version where a restriction principle, in our definition of this method, applies directly. This reinforces the idea that the CC-version is the most fundamental, most natural version of the Segal-Bargmann transform.
