From the Preface by V. S. VARADARAJAN: These volumes of the Collected Papers of Harish-Chandra are being brought out in response to a widespread feeling in the mathematical community that they would immensely benefit scholars and research workers, especially those in analysis, representation theory, arithmetic, mathematical physics, and other related areas. lt is hoped that in addition to making his contributions more accessible by collecting them in one place, these volumes would help focus renewed attention on his ideas and methods as well as lend additional perspective to them. The papers...

Analysis on Symmetric spaces, or more generally, on homogeneous spaces of semisimple Lie groups, is a subject that has undergone a vigorous development in recent years, and has become a central part of contemporary mathematics. This is only to be expected, since homogeneous spaces and group representations arise naturally in diverse contexts ranging from Number theory and Geometry to Particle Physics and Polymer Chemistry. Its explosive growth sometimes makes it difficult to realize that it is actually relatively young as mathematical theories go. The early ideas in the subject (as is the...
