Title of Talk | Baumslag-Solitar Groups and Their Representations |
Abstract | The presenter will provide the audience with background on the Baumslag-Solitar groups and will share results from his search for simple representations of such groups. There will also be a discussion of the deformations of his simple representations and how this leads to determining the dimension of the representation variety and representation scheme at those simple representations. |
