On polynomial functions on non-conmmutative groups
Abstract
Let $G$ be a topological group. We investigate relations between two classes of "polynomial like" continuous functions on $G$ defined, respectively, by the conditions (1) $Δ_h^{n+1}f=0$ for every $h \in G$, and (2) $Δ_{h_{n+1}} Δ_{h_{n}}\cdots Δ_{h_{1}}f=0$, for every $h_1,\cdots, h_{n+1} \in G$. It is shown that for many (but not all) groups these classes coincide. We consider also Montel type versions of the above conditions - when (1) and (2) hold only for steps $h$ in a generating subset of $G$. Our approach is based on the study of the counterparts of the discussed classes for general representations of groups (instead of the regular representation).
