The Poisson-Furstenberg kernel of a bounded symmetric domain

We study and give new informations about analysis and geometry in bounded complex symmetric domains, using the theory of Jordan triple systems. The main results are: an explicit description of the root decomposition of the Lie algebra g of infinitesimal automorphisms; a Jordan characterisation of the group N in the Iwasawa decomposition G=KAN; description of horocycles; explicit formulas for eigenfunctions of G-invariants operators and for the Poisson-Furstenberg kernel, which is a reproducing kernel for G-harmonic functions.
