What is quasi-isometric rigidity
Student-Run Geometry/Topology Seminar| Speaker: | Misha Kapovich, UC Davis |
| Location: | 1147 MSB |
| Start time: | Tue, Jan 25 2011, 12:10PM |
Quasi-isometries are natural morphisms in the context of geometric group theory. In the talk I will explain what quasi-isometries are, how they appear and give some examples of spaces and groups which are and which are not "quasi-isometrically rigid."
