Description
The Banff International Research Station will host the "Applications of harmonic analysis to convex geometry" workshop in Banff from April 26 to May 1, 2026.
The study of geometric properties of convex bodies based on information about sections or projections of these bodies belongs to the area of geometric tomography and has important applications to many areas of mathematics and science, in general. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the interaction between harmonic analysis and convex geometry, leading to solutions for several longstanding open problems, the discovery of new phenomena, and many new intriguing open questions.
The goal of this workshop is to bring together young and established researchers to discuss recent developments and advance applications of harmonic analysis to convex geometry and geometric tomography.
The Banff International Research Station
for Mathematical Innovation and Discovery (BIRS) is a collaborative
Canada-US-Mexico venture that provides an environment for creative
interaction as well as the exchange of ideas, knowledge, and methods
within the Mathematical Sciences, with related disciplines and with
industry. The research station is located at The Banff Centre in
Alberta and is supported by Canada's Natural Science and Engineering
Research Council (NSERC), the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF),
and Alberta's Advanced Education and Technology.
