Harmonic analysis on a finite homogeneous space. (English) Zbl 1189.43008

Let \(G\) be a finite group acting transitively on a finite set \(X\) and let \(K\) be the stabilizer of a point \(x_o\in X\). Then \(X=G/ K\) is a finite homogeneous space. The authors study harmonic analysis on \(X\) whose associated permutation representation decomposes with multiplicity.
