The Story of Geometric Groups Part II
Abstract: Continuing the theme of the first talk, I will introduce the classical Banach Tarski paradox, its algebraic origins, and the geometry of non-paradoxical groups.
This talk will conclude with a map of the universe of finitely generated groups, as sketched in these two talks. The map to-date contains much uncharted territory.
