Workshop on Profinite Rigidity

Download a list of problems suggested by participants of the workshop

Dates: June 26-June 30, 2023

Organizers: Martin Bridson (Oxford), Andrei Jaikin (Madrid), Alan Reid (Houston)

This workshop is part of a thematic program on geometric group theory and low-dimensional geometry and topology at ICMAT (Madrid). It is framed within ICMAT’s Agol Lab, a research cluster on the general areas of geometric group theory and low dimensional topology, chaired by Ian Agol.

We are planning to have two or three courses and several research talks. If you are interested in participating, please write to agollab2023@icmat.es
