Abstract
Two spaces of generalized functions on the unit sphere Ωq−1 ⊂ ℝq are introduced. Both types of generalized functions can be identified with suitable classes of harmonic functions. They are projective and inductive limits of Hilbert spaces. Several natural classes of continuous and continuously extendible operators are discussed: Multipliers, differentiations, harmonic contractions/expansions and harmonic shifts. The latter two classes of operators are "parametrized" by the full affine semigroup ℝn.
