We show that there is a sequence of infinite index q uasiconvex subgroups whose growth-rates converge to the growth-rate of G. \n\nIn the first talk\, we will discuss growth-rates\, prove the result in the case when G is a free group (work of Dahmani-Futer-Wise)\, sketch a p roof of the general case. In the second talk\, we will give details of the proof\, including the automatic structure that it relies upon and the met hod for using automata to estimate growth-rates. We will also survey a col lection of problems that are motivated by this work.\n\n \n DTSTART:20171115T200000Z DTEND:20171115T210000Z LOCATION:Room 920\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Daniel Wise (9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ) URL:/mathstat/channels/event/daniel-wise-mcgill-univer sity-282643 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
