The property of rapid decay
January 23 to January 27, 2006
AIM Research Conference Center, Palo Alto, CA

Organizers:
Indira Chatterji and Laurent Saloff-Coste

Workshop topics:
This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will be devoted 
to the property of Rapid Decay.

The property of Rapid Decay (abbreviated by property RD) is a 
property of convolution operators that captures certain aspects 
of the asymptotic geometry of a finitely generated group. Property 
RD is a very focused area of research in harmonic analysis and 
operator algebra. However, it has ramifications in geometry, 
topology and algebra 

Application deadline:
October 20, 2005
