Harmonic Analytic and Quantum Metric Aspects of Rapid Decay (HAQMARD)

In classical metric geometry we study metric spaces, which are sets equipped with a notion of distance known as a metric. Of importance when studying metric spaces are the continuous functions on the space. In fact, it turns out that the metric can be characterized solely in terms of a subset of ...
