We consider convolution equations of the type f * T = g where f, g are in L^p(R^n) and T is a compactly supported distribution. Under natural assumptions on the zero set of the Fourier transform of T we show that f is compactly supported,…

If G is a Lie group, let D(G) be the space of compactly supported smooth functions on G. Consider the bilinear map B : D(G) x D(G) -> D(G), (f,g) |-> f*g which takes a pair of test functions to their convolution. We show that B is…

We are interested in the ``smoothest'' averaging that can be achieved by convolving functions $f \in \ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$ with an averaging function $u$. More precisely, suppose $u:\{-n, \ldots, n\} \to \mathbb{R}$ is a symmetric function…

The Fourier coefficients of a smooth $K$-invariant function on a compact symmetric space $M=U/K$ are given by integration of the function against the spherical functions. For functions with support in a neighborhood of the origin, we…

Let $G$ be a reductive complex Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and suppose that $V$ is a polar $G$-representation. We prove the existence of a radial parts map $\mathrm{rad}: \mathcal{D}(V)^G\to A_{\kappa}$ from the $G$-invariant…

Let $X=G/K$ be a symmetric space of the non-compact type. We prove that the mean value operator over translated $K$-orbits of a fixed point is surjective on the space of smooth functions on $X$ if $X$ is either complex or of rank one. For…

Let $\Omega\subset \mathbb{C}^n$ for $n\geq 2$ be a bounded pseudoconvex domain with a $C^2$-smooth boundary. We study the compactness of composition operators on the Bergman spaces of smoothly bounded convex domains. We give a partial…

Consider an open set $\mathbb{D}\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$, equipped with a probability measure $\mu$. An important characteristic of a smooth function $f:\mathbb{D}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ is its \emph{second-moment matrix} $\Sigma_{\mu}:=\int…

Let $T$ be a $C_0$--contraction on a separable Hilbert space. We assume that $I_H-T^*T$ is compact. For a function $f$ holomorphic in the unit disk $\DD$ and continuous on $\bar\DD$, we show that $f(T)$ is compact if and only if $f$…

Let $f$ be a function on a bounded domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ and $\delta$ be a positive function on $\Omega$ such that $B(x,\delta(x))\subseteq \Omega$. Let $\sigma(f)(x)$ be the average of $f$ over the ball $B(x,\delta(x))$.…

We prove the Plancherel formula for spherical Schwartz functions on a reductive symmetric space. Our starting point is an inversion formula for spherical smooth compactly supported functions. The latter formula was earlier obtained from the…
