This thesis is concerned with the spectral theory of the Laplacian on non-Euclidean spaces and its intimate links with harmonic analysis and the theory of special functions. More specifically, it studies the spectral theory of the Laplacian on the quotients M = Γ\G/K and X = G/K, where G is a connected semisimple Lie group, K is a maximal compact subgroup of G and Γ is a discrete subgroup of G.
