The Schwartz correspondence for the complex motion group on ${\mathbb{C}}^2$

Abstract

If $(G,K)$ is a Gelfand pair, with $G$ a Lie group of polynomial growth and $K$ a compact subgroup of $G$, the Gelfand spectrum $\Sigma$ of the bi-$K$-invariant algebra $L^1(K\backslash G/K)$ admits natural embeddings into ${\mathbb{R}}^n$ spaces as a closed subset. For any such embedding, define $\mathcal{S}(\Sigma )$ as the space of restrictions to $\Sigma$ of Schwartz functions on ${\mathbb{R}}^n$. We call Schwartz correspondence for $(G,K)$ the property that the spherical transform is an isomorphism of $\mathcal{S}(K\backslash G/K)$ onto $\mathcal{S}(\Sigma )$. In all the cases studied so far, Schwartz correspondence has been proved to hold true. These include all pairs with $G=K⋉H$ and $K$ abelian and a large number of pairs with $G=K⋉H$ and $H$ nilpotent. In this paper we study what is probably the simplest of the pairs with $G=K⋉H$, $K$ non-abelian and $H$ non-nilpotent, with $H=M_2(\mathbb{C})$, the complex motion group, and $K=U_2$ acting on it by inner automorphisms.
