Percolation on transitive graphs
Month: May 2008
Date: May 5--9
Name: Percolation on transitive graphs
Location: American Institute of Mathematics, Palo Alto, California.
Description
Geometric properties of Cayley graphs often turn out to have counterparts in the probabilistic world, and vice versa, but the translations between the different viewpoints are not always trivial. The aim of this workshop is to bring together people working in geometric group theory, probability and dynamics to learn from each other about the relevant techniques in these fields and thus generate new momentum to solve some of the persistent open problems. This workshop will be devoted to percolation on transitive graphs, most importantly, on Cayley graphs of finitely generated infinite groups.
