Title: Differential operators on equivariant vector bundles over symmetric spaces 

Author: Anton Deitmar (University of Exeter, Devon, UK)
         
Abstract: 
  Generalizing the algebra of motion-invariant differential
  operators on a symmetric space we study invariant operators on
  equivariant vector bundles. We show that the eigenequation is
  equivalent to the corresponding eigenequation with respect to
  the larger algebra of all invariant operators. We compute the
  possible eigencharacters and show that for invariant integral
  operators the eigencharacter is given by the Abel transform.
  We show that sufficiently regular operators are surjective,
  i.e. that equations of the form $Df=u$ are solvable for all $u$.
