“Free subgroups and amenability of groups acting on rooted trees”

by Mary Himmelstein last modified 2007-08-27 10:57


Speaker: Volodymyr Nekrashevych



Abstract:
The talk will be a survey of known results and open problems concerning existence of free subgroups in groups acting on rooted trees, in particular in iterated monodromy groups and groups generated by finite automata. Amenability and growth of such groups will be also discussed.
