Geometry and Representation Theory of Locally Compact Groups

This research group investigates the geometric and analytic structures of p-adic Lie groups, locally compact groups, and related metric spaces. We use metric‑geometric methods to reveal simple geometric interpretations of phenomena that are typically understood only through technical harmonic‑analytic tools. Through this perspective, we aim to forge new connections between geometry, group theory, and representation theory.
