Abstract:
An explicit bound is given for functions of conditionally negative type on Kazhdan groups, in terms of a set of generators and the corresponding Kazhdan constants. This is used to estimate how far a set in an infinite measure space can be translated by the action of a Kazhdan group. Some estimates are given for Kazhdan constants.References
