SUMMARY:Math Colloquium - Thompson's group F and geometric group theory
DESCRIPTION:Mathematics Colloquium\nSpeaker: Professor Sean Cleary\, The City College of New York and the CUNY Graduate Center \nAbstract: In the early 1960’s Richard J. Thompson discovered a fascinating family of infinite groups in connection with his work in logic. These groups have reappeared in a wide variety of settings\, including homotopy theory\, measure theory of discrete groups\, non-associative algebras\, dynamical systems\, and geometric group theory. Geometric group theory considers infinite groups as geometric objects\, and has been productive in bring tools modeled on differential geometry notions to the discrete settings of countably infinite groups. Thompson’s group F is the simplest known example of a variety of unusual group-theoretic phenomena and has been the subject of a great deal of study. I will describe these groups from several different perspectives and discuss some of their remarkable properties\, particularly some unusual aspects of the geometry of their Cayley graphs.

Overview of other resources beyond these course topics \nWho Should Enroll:\nThis course is designed for individuals who are contemplating retirement or who are newly retired. (We will not cover planning the legal or financial aspects of retirement in this course; there are other places to work on those processes.) \nProgram Details:\nInstructor: Pat McCabe\, MS\, MEd is a New Hampshire-based human resources partner with 24 years of experience asking future retirees: What are your plans for after you retire? With master’s degrees in Counseling and Higher Education Administration\, she has been connecting people to resources at non-profit organizations and in higher education since shoulder pads and big hair were in fashion. \nProgram Dates & Times\nFeb. 4\, 11\, 18\, 25\, Mar. 4\, 11\, 2026\n6:30–8:00 pm ET\nRegister by January 12 \nRegister Online\nNotify me when new dates are available\nPre-class work will be sent a week before the start of the program\, and after each session. \nModality:\nThis participatory program will be offered synchronously via Zoom—you’ll need access to a stable internet connection.
