Un après-midi de théorie des groupes – Adrien Boyer, Julien Marché, Greg Patchell

Salle W

14:00-14:45 Adrien Boyer (IMJ-PRG): Property RD and Boundary Representations for A2 Buildings 15:00-15:45 Julien Marché (ENS – PSL): Action of endomorphisms of free groups on their SL_2-character varieties 16:15-17:00 Greg Patchell (University of Oxford): Selfless Inclusions of C*-Algebras and Quantum Groups Abstracts: Greg Patchell: Selfless Inclusions of C*-Algebras and Quantum Groups Recently, strong asymptotic freeness, or selflessness, in C-algebras has emerged as a powerful technique to prove important regularity properties including simplicity, unique trace, stable rank 1, and strict comparison. In particular, in Fall 2024, Amrutam, Gao, Kunnwalkam Elayavalli, and […]

Matteo Tamiozzo, raconte-moi les groupes de Golod-Shafarevich !

Salle W toits du DMA

Les groupes de Golod-Shafarevich, découverts dans les années 60, ont trouvé des applications en théorie des nombres, théorie des groupes et topologie. Dans cet exposé j'introduirai ces groupes, et j'expliquerai le rôle qu'ils jouent dans l'étude des groupes fondamentaux des anneaux des entiers des corps de nombres et des variétés de dimension 3.

Un après-midi de théorie des groupes – Elia Fioravanti, Enrico Le Donne, Catherine Pfaff

Salle W

14.00 - 14.45   Elia Fioravanti (KIT - Karlsruhe) "Generators for automorphisms of special groups"15.00 - 15.45   Enrico Le Donne (University of Fribourg) "Asymptotic geometry of Riemannian nilpotent groups"16.15 - 17.00   Catherine Pfaff (Queen's University) "A "cubist" decomposition of the Handel-Mosher axis bundle" Abstracts: Elia Fioravanti: Generators for automorphisms of special groups  Given a family F of finitely generated groups, do all groups in F have “tame” automorphisms, or can there be “wild” examples? More concretely, is Out(G) finitely generated for all groups G in the family F? Rips and Sela showed in the 90s […]
