Geometric group theory | Metric geometry | Theorems in group theory | Nilpotent groups | Infinite group theory
In geometric group theory, Gromov's theorem on groups of polynomial growth, first proved by Mikhail Gromov, characterizes finitely generated groups of polynomial growth, as those groups which have nilpotent subgroups of finite index. (Wikipedia).
Number Theory | Lagrange's Theorem of Polynomials
We prove Lagrange's Theorem of Polynomials which is related to the number of solutions to polynomial congruences modulo a prime.

Camille Horbez: Automorphisms of hyperbolic groups and growth
Abstract: Let G be a torsion-free hyperbolic group, let S be a finite generating set of G, and let f be an automorphism of G. We want to understand the possible growth types for the word length of fn(g), where g is an element of G. Growth was completely described by Thurston when G is the

Mikhail Gromov - 3/4 Old, New and Unknown around Scalar Curvature
Geometry of scalar curvature, that is comparable in scope to symplectic geometry, mediates between two worlds: the domain of rigidity, one sees in convexity and the realm of softness, characteristic of topology, such as the cobordism theory. The aim of this course is threefold: 1. An ove

Panagiotis Papasoglu - Asymptotic dimension of graphs of polynomial growth and systolic inequalities
Asymptotic dimension and n-Uryson width are useful notions of dimension in coarse and systolic geometry respectively. I will explain how using similar techniques one obtains: 1. Sharp estimates for the asymptotic dimension of graphs of polynomial growth 2. A new proof of a theorem of Guth

In this video we show that any finite subgroup of K^{\times} is cyclic. This is an amazing proof using the fundamental theorem of abelian groups and the way polynomials factor. This has big applications: --that the nth roots of unity in any field are a cyclic group. --that the group of
