We derive L∞–L1 decay rate estimates for solutions of the shifted wave equation on certain symmetric spaces (M, g). The Cauchy problem for the shifted wave operator on these spaces was studied by Helgason, who obtained a closed form for its solution. Our results extend to this new context the classical estimates for the wave equation in ℝn. Then, following an idea from Klainerman, we introduce a new norm based on Lie derivatives with respect to Killing fields on M and we derive an estimate for the case that n = dim M is odd.

AbstractJean-Philippe Anker made an interesting conjecture in [2] about the growth of the heat kernel on symmetric spaces of noncompact type. For any symmetric space of noncompact type, we can writewhere ϕ0 is the Legendre function and q, "the dimension at infinity", is chosen such that limt—>∞Vt(x) = 1 for all x. Anker's conjecture can be stated as follows: there exists a constant C > 0 such thatwhere is the set of positive indivisible roots. The behaviour of the function ϕ0 is well known (see [1]).The main goal of this paper is to establish the conjecture for the spaces SU*(2n)/ Sp(n).

We study the large time limiting properties of a Lévy process in a symmetric space of noncompact type, both pathwise and in terms of distribution.

AbstractIn [1], Jean-Philippe Anker conjectures an upper bound for the heat kernel of a symmetric space of noncompact type. We show in this paper that his prediction is verified for the space of positive definite n × n real matrices.

AbstractWe prove Beurling's theorem for rank 1 Riemannian symmetric spaces and relate its consequences with the characterization of the heat kernel of the symmetric space.
