Groups and Their Actions
9 - 13 July, 2012, Będlewo
The conference "Groups and Their Actions" 2012 continues the tradition of group theoretic conferences "Groups and Group Rings" which took place in Poland in 1993-2005 and "Groups and Their Actions" 2007, 2010 (in 2005, 2007, 2010 placed in Będlewo).
The discussed topics included: special aspects of finite p-groups, including combinatorial and Lie methods in this theory; geometric and combinatorial methods in important classes of infinite groups; groups of automorphisms of trees; linear groups; varieties of groups; unit groups of rings, with a special emphasis on unit groups of group rings and related problems. The conference was organized and supported by:
- Stefan Banach International Mathematical Center
- Institute of Mathematics of Silesian University of Technology (Gliwice, Poland)
- Institute of Mathematics of the University of Warsaw (Warsaw, Poland)
The next conference in a series is to be organized in 2015 in Będlewo.
