Geometric group theory
ID: geometric-group-theory
Geometric group theory is a branch of mathematics that studies the connections between group theory and geometry, particularly through the lens of topology and geometric structures. It emerged in the late 20th century and has since developed into a rich area of research, incorporating ideas from various fields including algebra, topology, and geometry. Key concepts in geometric group theory include: 1. **Cayley Graphs**: These are graphical representations of groups that illustrate the group's structure.
