The Kazhdan property donates an extra dimension
Thursday, 17 October, 2024 - 14:00
Résumé :
The waist inequality for the sphere by Gromov is wonderful result of geometric measure theory. Formulated appropriately for families of spaces, a (uniform) waist inequality for a family of Riemannian manifolds is the Riemannian analog of higher dimensional expanders. We formulate a conjectural picture for locally symmetric spaces. Finally, we show that the Kazhdan property alone gives rise not only to expanders, which is classical, but also to 2-dimensional expanders. An extra dimension for free. We will assume no prior knowledge of expanders and property T. This is joint work with Uri Bader.
