North British Geometric Group Theory Seminar
Friday 29th May 2020, University of Newcastle
Speakers will be
Rachael Boyd (Bonn), Henry Bradford (Cambridge), Armin Weiss (Stuttgart).
We plan to hold this through zoom. Please contact me (Sarah Rees)
if you have
any queries about this; zoom invitations will be sent out in due course.
I will distribute the zoom link by email to all on my email list and any others who contact me, well in advance of the meeting.
Our schedule:
- We'll open up the zoom link before the start of the meeting, maybe at 1300,
possibly earlier (we'd like to know what our audience would like)?
- 1330-1430: Rachael Boyd (MPIM Bonn):
Geometric constructions using Artin monoids
- 1440-1540: Armin Weiss (Stuttgart):
On the isomorphism problem for virtually free groups
- 1540-1620: Online Tea break
- 1620-1720: Henry Bradford (Cambridge):
Quantifying lawlessness for finitely generated groups
- 1720 onwards: Online drinks and nibbles
The meeting is funded by grants from the London Mathematical
Society,
the Glasgow Mathematical Journal Learning and Research Support Fund,
and the University of Newcastle, School of Mathematics, Statistics and Physics.
