There exists the wonderful integral transform on complex semisimple Lie groups, which assigns to a function on the group the set of its integrals over "generalized horospheres" — some specific submanifolds of the Lie group. The local inversion formula for this integral transform, discovered in 50's for [Formula: see text] by Gel'fand and Graev, made it possible to decompose the regular representation on [Formula: see text] into irreducible ones. In case of real semisimple Lie group the situation becomes more complicated, and usually there is no reasonable analogous integral transform at all. Nevertheless, in the present paper we succeed to define the integral transforms on the Lorentz group and some other real semisimple Lie groups, which are in a sense analogous to the integration over "horospheres". We obtain the inversion formulas for these integral transforms.

AbstractIn the first part of this paper generalizationsof Hesselink’s q-analog of Kostant’smultiplicity formula for the action of a semisimple Lie group on the polynomials on its Lie algebra are given in the context of the Kostant-Rallis theorem. They correspond to the cases of real semisimple Lie groups with one conjugacy class of Cartan subgroup. In the second part of the paper a q-analog of the Kostant-Rallis theorem is given for the real group SL(4, ) (that is SO(4) acting on symmetric 4 × 4 matrices). This example plays two roles. First it contrasts with the examples of the first part. Second it has implications to the study of entanglement of mixed 2 qubit states in quantum computation.

Let G be a noncompact linear semisimple Lie group. Fix G = KAN an Iwasawa decomposition of G. That is, K is a maximal compact subgroup of G, A is a vector subgroup with AdA consisting of semisimple transformations and A normalizes N, a simply connected nilpotent subgroup of G.
