Fall Semester 2005

We decided that this coming academic year that the Measure Theory Seminar should have as a focus the recent beautiful book of Alexander KOLDOBSKY, 'Fourier Analysis in Convex Geometry', which has just appeared as Volume 116 in the Mathematical Surveys of the American Mathematical Society.
