Proceedings of the International Conference on Geometric Group Theory in Canberra, Australia, 1996. Topics covered include algebraic and geometric automorphism groups, the geometric invariants of a group, automatic and hyperbolic groups, convergence groups, combinatorial approach to conformal structure, Artin groups and braid groups, and distortion of subgroups. The volume consists of 17 contributions including both, research and research/expository papers, and will be an important resource for a wide variety of algebraists and geometers.

This book is a collection of papers from the proceedings of the first symposium of the Japan Association for Mathematical Sciences. Topics covered in this book center around problems of geometric analysis in relation to heat kernels, random walks, and Poisson boundaries on discrete groups, graphs, and other combinatorial objects. The material is suitable for graduate students and research mathematicians interested in heat kernels and random works on groups and graphs.

Geometric topology has undergone tremendous changes in the past decade or so. Many of the big questions facing mathematicians in this area have been answered, and new directions and problems have arisen. One of the characteristics of the field is the diversity of tools researchers bring to it. A Workshop on Geometric Topology was held in June 1992 at Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa, to bring together researchers from different subfields to share knowledge, ideas, and tools. This volume contains the refereed proceedings of the conference.

This volume contains selected papers that were presented at the AMS-IMS-SIAM Joint Summer Research Conference on "Differential Geometric Methods in the Control of Partial Differential Equations", which was held at the University of Colorado in Boulder in June 1999. The aim of the conference was to explore the infusion of differential-geometric methods into the analysis of control theory of partial differential equations, particularly in the challenging case of variable coefficients, where the physical characteristics of the medium vary from point to point. While a mutually

This volume presents articles by speakers and participants in two AMS special sessions, Geometric Group Theory and Geometric Methods in Group Theory, held respectively at Northeastern University (Boston, MA) and at Universidad de Sevilla (Spain). The expository and survey articles in the book cover a wide range of topics, making it suitable for researchers and graduate students interested in group theory.
