While this work occurs, language referencing protected class status or other activities prohibited by Ohio Senate Bill 1 may still appear in some places. However, all programs and activities are being administered in compliance with federal and state law.

Zassenhaus Lecture 3 - Gregory Margulis

4:30 pm - 5:30 pm
Jennings Hall, Room 355

Title:  Discrete Groups of Affine Transformations

Speaker:  Gregory Margulis, Yale University

Abstract:  About 40 years ago L.Auslander conjectured that if a discrete group H acts properly by affine transformations on R^n and R^n/H is compact then H is virtually polycyclic. i will talk about the current status of the Auslander conjecture. Another topic to be covered is affine proper actions without the assumption that the quotient space is compact.
