Geometric Approaches to Artin Groups

Geometric Approaches to Artin Groups

Explore geometric approaches to Artin groups in this illuminating lecture by Ruth Charney. Delve into the current understanding of Artin groups, focusing on the construction of group actions on spaces with desirable geometries such as CAT(0), hyperbolic, or systolic. Examine recent progress in addressing questions about Artin groups and their parabolic subgroups through various geometric constructions. This talk, part of the Workshop on Cube Complexes and Combinatorial Geometry, offers valuable insights into the intersection of group theory and geometry, providing a comprehensive overview of cutting-edge research in this field.
