Abstract

We investigate the space X of unitary hermitian matrices over &pfr;-adic fields through spherical functions. First we consider Cartan decomposition of X, and give precise representatives for fields with odd residual characteristic, i.e. 2 &NotElement; &pfr;. From Sec. 2.2 till the end of Sec. 4, we assume odd residual characteristic, and give explicit formulas of typical spherical functions on X, where Hall-Littlewood symmetric polynomials of type Cn appear as a main term, parametrization of all the spherical functions. By spherical Fourier transform, we show that the Schwartz space $\mathcal{S}(K{\backslash}X)$ is a free Hecke algebra $\mathcal{H}(G,K)$-module of rank 2n, where 2n is the size of matrices in X, and give the explicit Plancherel formula on $\mathcal{S}(K{\backslash}X)$.
