Let be a homogeneous tree, o be a fixed reference point in , and be the closed ball of radius N in centred at o. In this paper we characterise the image under the Helgason–Fourier transformation ℋ of , the space of functions supported in , and of , the space of rapidly decreasing functions on . In both cases our results are counterparts of known results for the Helgason–Fourier transformation on noncompact symmetric spaces.
