The Dunkl intertwining operator

Abstract: We consider Dunkl theory associated to a general Coxeter group G. A new characterization of the regularity of the weight k is given and a new construction, devoid of Kozul complex theory, of the Dunkl intertwining operator is established. We apply our results to derive sharp estimates of the Dunkl kernel. We give explicit formula in the case of orthogonal positive root systems. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
