about

WiGGD is a research retreat for women in groups, geometry, and dynamics. Participants will gather in small groups to work on specific projects. See below for the list of our proposed projects. We are currently soliciting applications from women to join these projects. Preference will be given to grad students close to finishing their Ph.D, postdocs, and faculty at teaching colleges.

projects

  1. Representation of knot groups and associated invariants
  2. Geometry of right-angled Coxeter groups
  3. Projection complexes and coarse cubulation
  4. Finiteness properties of groups
  5. Stretch factors in Out(F_r) and finite state automata
