Finite groups | Measures of complexity
In the area of abstract algebra known as group theory, the diameter of a finite group is a measure of its complexity. Consider a finite group , and any set of generators S. Define to be the graph diameter of the Cayley graph . Then the diameter of is the largest value of taken over all generating sets S. For instance, every finite cyclic group of order s, the Cayley graph for a generating set with one generator is an s-vertex cycle graph. The diameter of this graph, and of the group, is . It is conjectured, for all non-abelian finite simple groups G, that Many partial results are known but the full conjecture remains open. (Wikipedia).

What is a Group? | Abstract Algebra
Welcome to group theory! In today's lesson we'll be going over the definition of a group. We'll see the four group axioms in action with some examples, and some non-examples as well which violate the axioms and are thus not groups. In a fundamental way, groups are structures built from s

Harald Helfgott: The diameter of the symmetric group: ideas and tools
Abstract: Given a finite group G and a set A of generators, the diameter diam(Γ(G,A)) of the Cayley graph Γ(G,A) is the smallest ℓ such that every element of G can be expressed as a word of length at most ℓ in A∪A−1. We are concerned with bounding diam(G):=maxA diam(Γ(G,A)). It has long be

Part I - Theory : In the "theory" part of this mini-course, we will present recent objects and phenomena related to the study of big mapping class groups. In particular, we will define two faithful actions of some big mapping class groups. The first is an action by isometries on a Gromov-h
