Introduction to Geometric Group Theory

given by

Dr. Sangrok Oh (University of the Basque Country, Spain)

February 26–March 1, 2024

Abstract

Geometric group theory is the study of groups through their (nice) actions on suitably chosen metric spaces. Throughout this lecture series, I will present key theorems and examples that provide insight into how the geometric features of metric spaces characterize the algebraic properties of groups. If time permits, I will introduce some results and problems related to right-angled Artin groups that are significant in the field of geometric group theory.
