Introduction

In this university report we study spaces of functions on subsets of Hilbert

spaces. There are three main subjects in this paper.

The first subject is the theory of reproducing kernels. Most results on re­

~roducing kernels which we apply, have already been stated in Aronszajns

paper [Ar]. We apply the theory of reproducing kernels to Hilbert spaces of

harmonic functions.

The second subject is the harmonic or spherical harmonic function. As a guide

and starting point we used the book Spherical Harmonics of Muller [MuJ.

The third subject is the representation of some special groups in the intro­

duced spaces. The papers of KOno and Orihara [Ko] and [Or] served as a source

of inspiration.

The purposes of this report are the introduction of spaces of functions of

infinitely many variables, which are Hilbert spaces, analyticity spaces or

trajectory spaces. These spaces are characterized both functional analytical­

ly and analytically.

Now we present a short summary of each section separately.

Section 1 deals with reproducing kernels, representations, analyticity on

locally convex vector spaces and Gegenbauer polynomials.

In section 2 we introduce a Hilbert space ~ of harmonic functions on lRq

and we study its reproducing kernel. We also consider the usual representa­

tion of the orthogonal group on lRq in ~.

In section 3 we define a Hilbert space M of functions of an infinite number

of variables, which contains all spaces A~, q E IN. The fact that the set

of harmonic functions is dense in M is used to construct specific orthonormal

bases and to prove some general properties of the elements of M. In section 4 we define a Hilbert space N of functions on B the unit ball in

(U'2' We give results on this space N similar to the results of'the space M as defined in section 3.

In section 5 we consider isomorphisms between M and some well known spaces,

such as the Pock space, the Bargmann space and a space of square integrable

functions with respect to a Gaussian measure. For the latt.er type of space

we refer to [Ko] and [OrJ.

In the Bargmann space of infinite order the harmonic 90lynomiAls are dense

(Theorem 3.8). This is not true in a Bargmann space of finite order.

In section 6 characterizations of the space M and related spaces are present­

ed. Now analyticity plays a more important role than harmoniticity. We have

two kinds of characterizations: Estimates with respect to reproducing kernels

or a combination of a growth condition and a (real) analyticity condition.

1. Preliminaries

In the first part of this section we present some general results on repro­

ducing kernels and unitary representations of topological groups.

In the second part of this section we mention some recurrence relations of

Gegenbauer polynomials.

In the third part we introduce the notion of analyticity on a locally convex

topological vector space.

Finally we discuss an integral identity for c1-functions on a neighbourhood

of the unit sphere Sq-l in IRq.

Reproducing kernels

In this section F denotes a class of functions from a set D into ¢ which

establishes a complex Hilbert space with inner product (.,.) F and norm n. If",

Definition 1.1. The function K: D x D ~ t is called a reproducing kernel of

F iff

(a) V D: K{"Y) E F y£

f (y) •

We list some properties of reproducing kernels. These results can also be

found in [ArJ or [YosJ.

(1.1) For W c F let Span(W) denote the linear span of W, i.e.

Span(W) n

{ I j=l

The subspace Span({K(',y)

a.w. J J

Y ED}) is dense in F.

(1.2) Let the space F have a reproducing kernel K. Then for all x,y E D

II K(' ,y) I~ = KCy,y)

K(x,y) K

(1.3) The space F has at most one rcpr~lucing kernel.

(1.4) The space F has a reproducing kernel iff for each y E D the evaluation

functional f ~ fey), f E F, is continuous.

(l.S) Let F have a reproducing kernel K. Then we have

(1.6) Let Fl be a closed subspace of F, let F have a reproducing kernel K on

D x D and let P1

be the orthogonal projection from F onto Fl.

Then Fl has a reproducing kernel Kl with Kl (.,y) = Pi (K(.,y» and

Y E D, f E F •

(1.7) Let Fl and F2 be two mutually orthogonal closed subspaces of the function

space F with reproducing kernels Kl and K2 , respectively.

Then F admits a reproducing kernel K with K = Kl + K2 .

(1.8) Let F have a reproducing kernel K and let (~) be an orthonormal basis in F. . n n

The following equalities are valid:

I I(j)n (x) 12 = K(x,x) n

I ~n(Y)~n(x) = K(x,y) n

x,y ED.

(1.9) Let (~) be an orthonormal basis in F. n n

The space F admits a reproducing kernel iff for all x,y € D the series

L ~ (y)~ (x) is pointwise convergent. n n n

(1.10) Let DO denote a set and let K denote a function from DO x DO into ~ with

the property that for each n ~ 0, aj

Then there exists a vector space FO of functions on DO' which is a Hilbert

space and which admits K as a reproducing kernel. This space FO is uniquely

determined.

(1.11) The elements of a Hilbert space with reproducing kernel can be characterized

with the aid of the reproducing kernel:

(1. 12)

Theorem 1.2. Let F denote a Hilbert space of functions from a set 0 into ¢

with reproducing kernel K •. Let f denote a function from D into C.

Then f € F iff there exists c > 0 such that for each t E lN and all

because of (1.12), so the functional m is properly defined.

By assumption (1.12) and the properties of the re~roducing kernel of F it

follows that for all w E W

The space W is dense in F, so by the Riesz' representation theorem there

exists 9 E F such that for all w E W

In particular for each y E D we have

This implies f == g, whence f E F. rJ

Representations

Let G be a group with identity element e.

The Banach algebra of bounded operators on a Hilbert space X will be denoted

by L(X) and the identity on X by I or IX'

Definition 1.3. Let G be a topological group, let X be a complex Hilbert

space and let IT denote a mapping from G into L(X). The mapping IT is called a representation of the group G in X iff

Let F denote a Hilbert function space with reproducing kernel K: D x D ~~ <C

and let G denote a group of transformations on D. Then under certain condi­

tions on K there exists a canonical unitary representation of G in F.

Theorem 1.4~ Let G denote a topological group of transformations on O. Let F

have a reproducing kernel K with the properties:

(a) VR G V 0: K(Rx,Ry) = K(x,y) € x,y€

(b) Vy€O: The F-valued mapping R + K(-,Ry), REG is continuous at I D.

Then the mapping IT: G+ L(F) defined by

X E 0, f E F, REG

is a unitary representation of G in F.

Proof. Put W = Span({K(',y) lYE oJ).

For each REG the operator 'IT (R): W + W is defined by

t IT(R) ( I (),K(·,y.)) =

The statements (1.14)-(1.16) imply for all REG, fEW:

Ihr (R) f If = II f If .

The set W is dense in F. Let Ti(R) denote the unique unitary extension of

1T (R) to F.

Let REG, let f E F and let XED.

Let V be a subspace of the Hilbert space X and let A E L(X) be such that

A (V) c V.

This subspace V is called A-invariant.

The restriction of A to V will be denoted by Alv' It is clear that Alv E L(V). * If also A (V) c V then V is s.aid to reduce A. If U is a unitary operator then

each V-invariant subspace is also reducing.

Definition 1.5. Let n denote a unitary representation of a topological group

G in the Hilbert space X. The representation n is called irreducible iff each closed subspace V

of X, which is TI(g)-invariant for all g E G, equals {a} or X.

Lemma 1.6. Schur's lemma.

Let IT be a irreducible unitary representation of a topological group G in the Hilbert space X. Let A E L(X) be such that for all g E G the

operators A and neg) commute.

Then there exists A E ~ such that

A = AI .

The subspaces V~, n ~ 0 remain invariant under the operators LR

The subspaces Vq can be selected in such a way that for each f E Vq

exists a unique harmonic homogeneous polynomial p of degree n in q variables

(i.e. p(AX) = Anp(X) and [6~](X) = 0, A € IR, x E IRq) such that

This leads to the following definition:

3. A space of functions on a real separable infinite dimensional Hilbert space

In the first part of this section we construct a complex Hilbert space of

functions of infinitely many real variables with the aid of the Hilbert

spaces of harmonic functions, introduced in the previous section.

In the second part of this section a unitary representation of the full or­

thogonal group on IRt2 in this Hilbert space will be introduced.

We use the following conventions and notations:

(3.1) IRt2 denotes the real Hilbert space of square summable sequences with inner

product and norm denoted by ( ••• ) and II • II respectively.

For a,b,c,d E IRt2 we define

(a + ib. c + id) = (a.c) + (b.d) + i[ (b.c) - (a.d)] .

(3.2) (ej)j denotes the standard orthonormal basis of IRt2 ; i.e. e j

(3.3) IRtc denotes the subspace of IRt2 consisting of all finite sequences x i.e,

only a finite number of entries of x are non zero.

(3.4) The space IRq is embedded in IRt2 identifying (x1' ... ,xq ) and ~ x,e. E IRt2' j=1 J J

Thus we get for example

IRq = IRt and so on . c

(3.5) O(IRt2

) denotes the group of all orthogonal operators (i.e. bijective isome­

tries) from IRt2 onto IRt2

.

(3.6) o ( IR t ) == {V E 0 ( IR t2

) I V ( IR t ) = IR t } • c c c

(3.7) Eq denotes the orthogonal prOjection from IRt2 onto IRq.

(3.8) The group O(IRq

) is embedded in O(IRt2

) identifying R E O(IRq

) and the ortho­

gonal operator RE + (I - E ) E O(IRt2).

Due to the fact that the elements of M can be approximated by harmonic func­

tions in finitely many variables, certain properties of harmonic functions

carryover to the functions of M. The following two theorems are results of

this type. The first theorem is a generalization of the classical Mean-value

theorem for harmonic functions.

Theorem 3.14. Let f E M, let x E IR12 and let r > O. Then

The second theorem is a weak version of the min-max principle of harmonic

functions.

Theorem 3.15. Let D be a bounded open subset of IR~2 with boundary r such

that D is weakly closed in IRi2

. As for harmonic functions, we have

V D I f (x) I s XE

sup ncr

If (n) I .

Proof. Let r > 0 be such that D c {x ( IR~2 I II xii < r}. Then we have

2 V - If(x) I ~ eXP (2)lIfIl M XED

Since r = D\D, d = sup If(n) I < 00.

nEr Now suppose the assertion (3.14) were not true.

Then there exists y E D such that if(y) I > d. Let p > 0 be such that

:S;

D

- 42 -

If(y) I = d + P. Since D is open there exists z E E D for sufficiently large q

q such that

(a) If(z) - fey) I < t p

(b)

From (b) it follows

1 < - p

3 for all XED .

We obtain

IcFlf](z) I = If(y) - fey) + fez) - fez) + CPqf](z) I ~

?: If(y) I - If(y) - fez) I - If(z) - [Pqf](z) I >

1 1 > d + p - 3 p - 3 p =

Further we have

sup ICpqf](n) 1'5 sup <If(n) 1+ ICpqf](n) - fen) 1< nEr nEr

1 <d+}p.

So we are in the following position:

There exists a function, viz pqf, on IRq which is harmonic and satisfies

ICPqf](z) I > d + t p and sup ICpqf](n) I < d + t p •

nEr

Since D is open in IRt2

, observe that EqD is open in IRq.

We have z E E D. q

We are ready if we can prove that the boundary of E D is contained in E r. q q

Now Eq is a compact operator and D is weakly compact in IRt2 , whence Eq(D)

is compact in IRq

Therefore E (0) is closed in IRq and E (D) c E (0). Since q q q

Next we present two orthonormal bases in M. One of them arises from an expli­

cit construction, the other is given explicitly. This construction is by in­

duction and is based on a generating principle due to Muller. This principle

is formulated in the following lemma.

Lemma 3.16. Let f denote the restriction to sq-l of a harmonic homogeneous

polynomial p of degree m in q variables.

Let n 2: m. Let F: sq + ~ be defined by

F(/1 - t2~ + te 1) = Aq+l(t)f(~) q+ n,m

q-l ~ E S , t E [-l,lJ •

(For the definition of Aq+1 see (1.20).) n,m

Then F is equal to a restriction to sq of a unique harmonic homogeneous

polynomial of degree n in q+l variables.

Proof. See [Mu], definition 4 and lemma 15. o

Before we proceed we mention that the numbers dq n

dim (Hq) satisfy the rela­

Definition 3.17. Let e O,l = 1.

Let {e 1,e 2} be an orthonormal basis for H2, n 2: 1. n, n, n Let n,i E IN with i > 2.

There exist unique q E IN such that

Because of the relation (3.15) there exist unique m,j E IN u {oJ with

Next we present a unitary representation IT of the full orthogonal group

O(IRt2) in M which is a natural extension of the representation ITq

of O(IRq

in ~.

Definition 3.24. The mapping IT: R ~ IT(R) is defined by

* TI(R)f = foR,

Theorem 3.25. The mapping TI is an unitary representation of O(IRt2 ) in M.

Proof. Remark that R* -1 R for R E O(IRt2). We prove conditions (a) and (b)

of theorem 1.4.

(a): Fix x,y E IRt2 and R E O(IRt2). Then

K(Rx,Ry) = exp(Rx.Ry) exp(x.y) = K(x,y)

(b): Fix y E IRt2 , Y f 0, and € > O. We recall that lexp(x) - 11 ~ 21xl for

all x E IR with Ixl < ~. For R E O(IRt2) with

IIR - III < min{1/2I1ylI2,e:/llyIl2exp(2I1YI!2)}

we have

2 2 IIK(-tRy) - K(·,y)II M = 2[exp(lIyll ) - exp(Ry.y)]

= 2 exp(lIyIl2)[1 - exp(Ry - y.y)] ~

~ 2 exp ( 211 yll 2) II yll .11 y - Ryll < € •

From Theorem 1.4 it follows that IT is a unitary representation. D

Lemma 3.26. Let n ~ 0, let R € O(IRt2). Then we have

IT(R)P =PIT(R) n n

n (o.Ry) =: P IT(R)K(o,y)

Hence IT(R)P = P IT(R) on Wand hence on the whole of M. n n

So M is an invariant subspace of the representation TI. n

TI(R)P = PTI(R) •

Fix q ~ 2.

Since O(IRq

TI (R) P =: PIT (R) for all R E O(IR q) •

The mapping R -+ TI(R) I~' R E O(IRq

The operator pqppq maps ~ into Hq and from (3.22) and (3.23) it follows that n n n n

Finally we introduce orthogonal projections T(p) on M where P is an orthogo­

Fix an orthogonal projection P on IR~2'

Let W denote Span ({exp (-. y) lye IR ~2}) •

The operator T(P): W + W is defined by

Cauchy sequences in M in 11.11 -sense. *

The corresponding inner product and norm of N will be denoted by ("')N

We make some remarks about N.

(4.1) The elements of M will be identified with their restrictions to the unit

(4.2) Since II.II M and II.II N are equivalent on Mn the closure of Mn in N is Mn itself.

plexitication of the former. (The same notations for the inner product and

that each function f € M can be extended to a function f from ~t2 into ~ be­

longing to B. Thus M and B can be identified. This identification induces an

identification between S(IRt2

6. Characterization of M and related spaces

In this section we characterize the elements of the spaces M , M and B. n

For a certain class of positive self-adjoint operators C in M it appears that

the elements of SM,C and TM,C are real analytic functions on TIR~2'A and

SIRt2

,A respectively. Here A denotes a positive self-adjoint operator, which,

in our terminology, is exponentially coupled with C on IRt2 x M.

For a certain class of positive self-adjoint operators C' in B similar re­

sults have been derived for the elements of SB,C' and TB,C" A subset of the

latter mentioned class admits the characterization of the elements of the

spaces SB,C' and TB,C' as analytic functions with a simple growth condition.

Our first result concerns the characterization of the elements in M . n

Theorem 6.1. Let n E IN and let f be a function from IRt2 into ~.

The following statements are equivalent:

(a) f EM. n

(b) The function f is continuous. The functions fiq: IRt2 +~, q E IN,

In a similar way the elements of M can be characterized.

side of (6.2) and (6.3) are identical.)

So for all q E IN the function f iq is well defined and its restriction to

the same arguments as used in the proof of (b) ... (a) in theorem 6.1.

Next we characterize the elements of M , M and B in a different way. The re­n

producing kernel is a very important tool in this characterization.

The mapping w + exp(o.w) from ~t2 into S is continuous.

Since for each u,v E ~t2
