SUMMARY:Asymptotic cones of groups
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Mark Sapir\, Vanderbilt University\n\nThe asymptotic cone of a metric space X is the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of rescaled copies X/n of X, n=1,2,.... They were introduced by Gromov in his celebrated paper about groups of polynomial growth. Every finitely generated group becomes a metric space if we equip it with the word metric. …
