On approximation properties of group C*-algebras
In this thesis we study analytic techniques from operator theory that encapsulate geometric properties of a group. Rapid Decay Property (Property RD) provides estimates for the operator norm of elements of the group ring (in the left-regular representation) in terms of the Sobolev norm. Roughly, pro...
