SUMMARY:The geometry of groups - Dr Ana Khukhro (University of Cambridge)
DTSTART:20190125T190000Z

CONTACT:Valentin Hübner
DESCRIPTION:Groups are extremely natural algebraic objects\, allowing us t
 o express the notion of symmetry in a mathematical language. While they ca
 n be studied in a purely algebraic or combinatorial way\, groups truly com
 e alive when imbued with geometry. We will talk about how to construct gra
 phs from groups\, the interactions between geometric and algebraic propert
 ies of groups\, and some surprising applications\, including how group the
 ory can help you save money on cables.
