Description:
------------

This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will focus on
understanding boundaries of groups, which can often encode various
algebraic and geometric properties of the underlying group. 

The workshop is organized by
Jean-Francois Lafont and Genevieve Walsh .

AIM Research Conference Center:
--------------------------------

The American Institute of Mathematics (AIM) hosts focused
workshops in all areas of the mathematical sciences. AIM
focused workshops are distinguished by their emphasis on
a specific mathematical goal, such as making progress on a
significant unsolved problem, understanding the proof of an
important new result, or investigating the convergence between
two distinct areas of mathematics.
