Geometric analysis on Euclidean and homogeneous spaces encompasses parts of representation theory, integral geometry, , microlocal analysis, and partial differential equations. It is used in a wide array of applications in fields as diverse as inverse problems, tomography, and signal and data analysis. This volume provides articles giving historical perspectives, overviews of current research in these interrelated areas, and new results. We hope this motivates beginning researchers in these fields, and we wish that readers will be left with a good sense of important past work as well as current research in these exciting and active fields of mathematics. One theme of the volume is the geometric analysis motivated by the work of Sigurdur Helgason. An historical perspective is provided in the first article by Prof. Helgason himself and in the second article by Profs. Olafsson´ and Stanton. This emphasis is natural, since the volume is based, in part, on the AMS Special Session on Radon Transforms and Geometric Analysis in honor of Sigurdur Helgason’s 85th birthday held in Boston during the 2012 AMS Annual Meeting. Research papers related to this viewpoint, in particular, on Radon transforms and related mathematics are presented by Bernstein & Pesenson, Kakehi, Madych, Olafsson,´ Pasquale & Rubin, Rouvi`ere, Rubin, and others. The workshop on Geometric analysis on Euclidean and homogeneous spaces, held at Tufts University immediately following the AMS annual meeting, sought to expand on the topics presented at the special session. It was broader in scope, as evidenced by the contributions to this volume. Among contributions in pure mathematics are articles on representation the- ory and equivariant differential operators (Kobayashi and Oda & Oshima), Pen- rose transforms (Eastwood and Sekiguchi), wavelets related to symmetric cones (Christensen), representation theory and inductive limits of Lie groups (Wolf), and noncommutative harmonic analysis (Andersen & Flensted-Jensen). The interplay between integral geometry and applications is explored in the more applied articles. These include developing an elliptical Radon transform for ultrasound (Ambartsoumian, Boman, Krishnan & Quinto), using Schiffer’s conjec- ture to understand partial cloaking (Liu), and Radon transforms in crystallography (Bernstein & Pesenson) and thermoacoustic tomography (Madych). We thank the U.S. National Science Foundation and the Tufts University Dean’s Discretionary Fund for their support of the Tufts workshop. We are grateful to Tufts University Staff Assistant Megan Monaghan for the work she did behind the scenes to make the workshop successful.

This volume contains the proceedings of the AMS Special Session on Radon Transforms and Geometric Analysis, in honor of Sigurdur Helgason’s 85th Birthday, held from January 4–7, 2012, in Boston, MA, and the Tufts University Workshop on Geometric Analysis on Euclidean and Homogeneous Spaces, held from January 8–9, 2012, in Medford, MA. This volume provides an historical overview of several decades in integral geometry and geometric analysis as well as recent advances in these fields and closely related areas. It contains several articles focusing on the mathematical work of Sigurdur Helgason, includ- ing an overview of his research by Gestur Olafsson´ and Robert Stanton. The first article in the volume contains Helgason’s own reminiscences about the development of the group- theoretical aspects of the Radon transform and its relation to geometric analysis. Other contributions cover Radon transforms, harmonic analysis, Penrose transforms, represen- tation theory, wavelets, partial differential operators on groups, and inverse problems in • tomography and cloaking that are related to integral geometry. Editors Christensen, and Gonzalez, Quinto, Many articles contain both an overview of their respective fields as well as new research results. The volume will therefore appeal to experienced researchers as well as a younger generation of mathematicians. With a good blend of pure and applied topics the volume will be a valuable source for interdisciplinary research.
