Group Theory from a Geometrical Viewpoint

This 733-page proceedings volume brings together research on group theory approached through geometry. Its subject range includes Gromov’s theory of hyperbolic groups, Coxeter groups, Tits buildings, and group actions on real trees, alongside related work in combinatorial group theory. The collection offers a broad survey of active areas in the field, with its stated scope spanning both research students’ needs and topics at the research frontier. Its value as a reference lies in that range of connected mathematical subjects rather than in a single continuous argument.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Graduate students studying geometric or combinatorial group theory
  • Researchers interested in hyperbolic groups, Coxeter groups, Tits buildings, or actions on real trees

Book overview

 

"Geometric aspects of group theory have enjoyed tremendous resurgence during the past decade. That includes substantial stimulus to combinatorial group theory, Coexter graph and buildings, along with the new theory of hyperbolic groups ... The present volume by leading specialists-presents a broad perspective on the subject with special attention both to the needs of research students and to those at the frontiers of research."

James Eells

 

This proceedings presents the latest research materials done on group theory from geometrical viewpoint in particular Gromov's theory of hyperbolic groups, Coxeter groups, Tits buildings and actions on real trees. All these are very active subjects.
