Abstract

This paper is a continuation of [8] in the direction of proving the conjecture that the spherical transform on a nilpotent Gelfand pair (N, K) establishes an isomorphism between the space of K-invariant Schwartz functions on N and the space of Schwartz functions restricted to the Gelfand spectrum ΣD, appropriately embedded in a Euclidean space. We prove a result, of independent interest for the representation-theoretical problems that are involved, which can be viewed as a generalised Hadamard lemma for K-invariant functions on N. The context is that of nilpotent Gelfand pairs satisfying Vinberg's condition. This means that the Lie algebra n of N (which is step 2) decomposes as v ⊕ [n,n] with v irreducible under K.
