Representation Theory and Analysis of Reductive Groups: Spherical Spaces and Hecke Algebras

Abstract

The workshop gave an overview of current research in the representation theory and analysis of reductive Lie groups and its relation to spherical varieties and Hecke algebras. The participants and the speakers represented an international blend of senior researchers and young scientists at the start of their career. Some particular topics covered in the 30 talks related to structure theory of spherical varieties, p-adic symmetric spaces, symmetry breaking operators, automorphic forms, and local Langlands correspondence.
