AbstractThe purpose for this short note is to describe the space of harmonic spinors on hyperbolicn-spaceHn. This is a natural continuation of the study of harmonic functions onHnin [Minemura] and [Helgason]—these results were generalized in the form of Helgason's conjecture, proved in [KKMOOT],—and of [Gaillard 1, 2], where harmonic forms onHnwere considered. The connection between invariant differential equations on a Riemannian semisimple symmetric spaceG/Kand homological aspects of the representation theory ofG, as exemplified in (8) below, does not seem to have been previously mentioned. This note is divided into three main parts respectively dedicated to the statement of the results, some reminders, and the proofs. I thank the referee for having suggested various improvements.

Ever since S. Helgason [4] showed that any eigenfunction of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on the unit disk is represented by the Poisson integral of a hyperfunction on the unit circle, much interest has been arisen to the study of the Poisson integral representation of joint eigenfunctions of all invariant differential operators on a symmetric space X. In particular, his original idea of expanding eigenfunctions into K-finite functions has proved to be generalizable up to the case where X is a Riemannian symmetric space of rank one (cf. [4], [5], [11]). Presently, extension to arbitrary rank has been completed by quite a different formalism which views the present problem as a boundary-value problem for the differential equations. It should be recalled that along this line of approach a general theory of the systems of differential equations with regular singularities was successfully established by Kashiwara-Oshima (cf. [6], [7]).

In [5], H. Maass showed that the dimension of a space of generalized Whittaker functions satisfying certain system of differential equations on Siegel’s upper half space H2 of degree 2 is three. First of all, we shall investigate the structure of a space of generalized Whittaker functions which are eigen functions for the algebra of invariant differential operators on H2. The theory of generalized Whittaker functions is discussed in Yamashita [12], [13], [14], [15] with full generality. But, we will get an outlook of the space of generalized Whittaker functions by using elementary calculus instead of representation theory of Lie groups.

In this short note we shall apply the theory of semi-groups of operators, (cf: Hille and Phillips, [2]), to the problem of representing solutions of certain differential equations with non-constant coefficients. When the coefficients are constant, this representation reduces to the usual Laplace transform solution of the relevant equation.
