One-relator group

In the mathematical subject of group theory, a one-relator group is a group given by a group presentation with a single defining relation. One-relator groups play an important role in geometric group theory by providing many explicit examples of finitely presented groups. (Wikipedia).

What is a Four-Vector? Is a Spinor a Four-Vector? | Special Relativity

In special relativity, we are dealing a lot with four-vectors, but what exactly is a four-vector? A four-vector is an object with four entries, which get transformed and changed in a very special way after we change our frame of reference. More precisely, a four-vector transforms like a (1

Stefaan Vaes - Classification of regular subalgebras of the hyperfinite II1 factor

I present a joint work with Sorin Popa and Dimitri Shlyakhtenko. We prove that under a natural condition, the regular von Neumann subalgebras B of the hyperfinite II1 factor R are completely classified (up to conjugacy by an automorphism of R) by the associated discrete measured groupoid.

Hankyung Ko: A singular Coxeter presentation

SMRI Algebra and Geometry Online Hankyung Ko (Uppsala University) Abstract: A Coxeter system is a presentation of a group by generators and a specific form of relations, namely the braid relations and the reflection relations. The Coxeter presentation leads to, among others, a similar pre

Ursula Hamenstädt: Artin groups and mapping class groups

Using a very recent result of Calderon and Salter, we relate small type Artin groups defined by Coxeter diagram which are trees to mapping class groups. This gives information on both the Artin groups with respect to commensurability and hyperbolicity of the parabolic subgroup graph as wel

Zlil Sela - Envelopes and equivalence relations in a free group

Zlil Sela (Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel) We study and classify all the definable equivalence relations in a free (and a torsion-free hyperbolic) group. To do that we associate a Diophantine set with every definable set, that contains the definable set, and its generic points are
