Analysis and Geometry on Groups

Klappentext The geometry and analysis that is discussed in this book extends to classical results for general discrete or Lie groups. Zusammenfassung The geometry and analysis that is discussed in this book extends to classical results for general discrete or Lie groups! and the methods used are analytical but have little to do with what is described these days as real analysis. Most of the results described in this book have a dual formulation. Inhaltsverzeichnis Preface; Foreword; 1. Introduction; 2. Dimensional inequalities for semigroups of operators on the Lp spaces; 3.
