Abstract

We examine a class of Grushin type operators Pk where k∈N0 defined in (1.1). The operators Pk are non-elliptic and degenerate on a sub-manifold of RN+ℓ. Geometrically they arise via a submersion from a sub-Laplace operator on a nilpotent Lie group of step k+1. We explain the geometric framework and prove some analytic properties such as essential self-adjointness. The main purpose of the paper is to give an explicit expression of the fundamental solution of Pk. Our methods rely on an appropriate change of coordinates and involve the theory of Bessel and modified Bessel functions together with Weber's second exponential integral.
