RESEARCH SCHOOL – ECOLE DE RECHERCHE
3-Manifolds and Geometric Group Theory (1905)
3-variétés et théorie géométriques des groupes
Dates: 11-15 June 2018 at CIRM (Marseille Luminy, France)


DESCRIPTION
The aim of this one-week school is to bring PhD students and recent post-docs up-to-date on current research happening in Geometric Group Theory and 3-manifolds. We will focus in particular on the interplay between the two topics, where the theory of hyperbolic 3-manifolds is an important influence in the modern theory of hyperbolic groups and their relatives.
