For specific discrete series of multiplicities these hypergeometric functions occur as the spherical functions of non-compact Grassmann manifolds $G/K$ over one of the (skew) fields $\\mathbb F= \\mathbb R, \\mathbb C, \\mathbb H.$ We write the product formula of these spherical functions in an explicit form which allows analytic continuation with respect to the parameters. In each of the three cases, we obtain a series of hypergroup algebras which include the commutative convolution algebras of $K$-biinvariant functions on $G$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2010-03-15T13:35:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "33C67", "43A90", "43A62", "33C80" ], "keywords": [ "heckman-opdam hypergeometric functions", "positive convolution structure", "type bc", "specific discrete series", "hypergeometric functions occur" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0907.2447R" } } }
