Groups acting on trees: representation theory and operator algebras

Abstract
This talk summarises different aspects of my work on totally disconnected groups, their representation theory and their operator algebras. Our guiding examples are non-discrete groups acting on trees. I will address simplicity, amenability and classification of operator algebras associated with groups acting on trees as well as representation theoretic aspects such as the admissibility conjecture.
Series This talk is part of the Isaac Newton Institute Seminar Series series.
