This generalizes the result of E. Damek, A. Hulanicki, D. M\"uller, and M. Peloso ["Pluriharmonic \hp{^2} functions on symmetric irreducible Siegel domains, Geom. Funct. Anal. 10 (2000) 1090--1117], where symmetric domains were considered. Our approach to study non-symmetric case is based on $T$-algebras introduced by E. B. Vinberg ["The theory of convex homogeneous cones, Trans. Moscow Math. Soc. 12 (1963) 340--403]. [ Fulltext-pdf  (273  KB)]
