Principle of the proof

We start from the formula with L = 1.

When γ ∈ G is regular, the formula of B. 2011simplifies dramatically, and can be differentiated in γ.

Use fundamental results of Harish-Chandra to evaluatethe action of a differential operator on B. 2011, andobtain our formula for γ regular.

If γ ∈ G semisimple arbitrary, use the previous resultfor γ regular and limit results of Harish-Chandra toobtain the general formula.
