Convolution of Orbital Measures on Symmetric Spaces of type Cp and Dp
Abstract
We study the absolute continuity of the convolution δ♮eX⋆δ♮eY of two orbital measures on the symmetric spaces SO0(p,p)/SO(p)×SO(p), SU(p,p)/S(U(p)×U(p)) and Sp(p,p)/Sp(p)×Sp(p). We prove sharp conditions on X, Y∈a for the existence of the density of the convolution measure. This measure intervenes in the product formula for the spherical functions.
