On a theorem of Chernoff on rank one Riemannian symmetric spaces
Abstract
In 1975, P.R. Chernoff used iterates of the Laplacian on $\mathbb{R}^n$ to prove an $L^2$ version of the Denjoy-Carleman theorem which provides a sufficient condition for a smooth function on $\mathbb{R}^n$ to be quasi-analytic. In this paper, we prove an exact analogue of Chernoff's theorem for all rank one Riemannian symmetric spaces (of noncompact and compact types) using iterates of the associated Laplace-Beltrami operators.
