The Rapid Decay Property for Groups
Title |
The Rapid Decay Property for Groups |
Abstract |
The property of Rapid Decay is a property of convolution operators that captures certain aspects of the asymptotic geometry of a finitely generated group. In this talk I will give a basic explanation of that property, and describe a theorem joint with Kim Ruane that all lattices in a rank one Lie group have the Rapid Decay property. |
