Abstract
Using a duality introduced in a previous paper we indicate the construction by means of simple integral formulas of a large class of joint eigenfunctions of U(g)K on a semisimple symmetric space. In the special case of a semisimple Lie group considered as a symmetric space, we obtain in this way the spherical trace function corresponding to a minimal K-type (in the sense of Vogan) for many of the irreducible Harish-Chandra modules (maybe all). Detailed proofs are to appear elsewhere.
