This volume provides state-of-the-art accounts of exciting recent
developments in the rapidly-expanding fields of geometric and
cohomological group theory. The research articles and surveys
collected here demonstrate connections to such diverse areas as
geometric and low-dimensional topology, analysis, homological
algebra and logic. Topics include various constructions of
Thompson-like groups, Wise's theory of special cube complexes,
groups with exotic homological properties, the Farrell-Jones
assembly conjectures and new applications of Garside structures.
Its mixture of surveys and research makes this book an excellent
entry point for young researchers as well as a useful reference
work for experts in the field. This is the proceedings of the 100th
meeting of the London Mathematical Society series of Durham
Symposia.
