One of the important questions related to any integral transform on a manifold M or on a homogeneous space G/K is the description of the image of a given space of functions. If M=G/K, where (G,K) is a Gelfand pair, then the harmonic…

Given a symmetric triple $(G,K,\sigma)$ of compact type, with $G^{\sigma} = K$, the well known Cartan embedding $\hat{\Phi}: G/K \to G$ homothetically embeds the symmetric space $M = G/K$ as a totally geodesic submanifold of $G$. In this…
