In this paper we study surjectivity of the map g β g n on an arbitrary connected solvable Lie group and describe certain necessary and sufficient conditions for surjectivity to hold. The results are applied also to study the exponential maps of the Lie groups.  2002 Elsevier Science (USA)

Abstract
We study a class of kernels associated to functions of a distinguished Laplacian on the solvable group AN occurring in the Iwasawa decomposition G = ANK of a noncompact semisimple Lie group G. We determine the maximal ideal space of a commutative subalgebra of L^1^, which contains the algebra generated by the heat kernel, and we prove that the spectrum of the Laplacian is the same on all L^p^ spaces, 1 β€ p < β. When G is complex, we derive a formula that enables us to compute the L^p^ norm of these kernels in terms of a weighted L^p^ norm of the corresponding kernels for the Euclidean Laplacian on the tangent space. We also prove that, when G is either rank one or complex, certain HardyβLittlewood maximal operators, which are naturally associated with these kernels, are weak type (1, 1).

For a solvable Lie group G the surjectivity of the exponential function expc is equivalent to the connectedness of the near-Cartan subgroups and to the connectedness of the centralizers in a Cartan subgroup of all nilpotent elements in its Lie algebra g. Furthermore, these conditions are satisfied i
Consider a right-invariant sub-Laplacian L on an exponential solvable Lie group G, endowed with a left-invariant Haar measure. Depending on the structure of G and possibly also that of L, L may admit differentiable L p -functional calculi, or may be of holomorphic L p -type for a given p{2, as recen
We show how to deduce multiplicity one theorems for cuspidal representations of finite groups of Lie type from analogous results for p-adic groups. We then look at examples where the latter is known. One such example is the restriction of Ε½ . Ε½ . w x irreducible representations of SO n to SO n y 1 S
Let \(G\) be a finite group such that every composition factor of \(G\) is either cyclic or isomorphic to the alternating group on \(n\) letters for some integer \(n\). Then for every positive integer \(h\) there is a subset \(A \subseteq G\) such that \(|A| \leqslant(2 h-1)|G|^{1 / h}\) and \(A^{h}
