DESCRIPTION:Title: The (virtual) cactus group.\n\nAbstract: \n\nI will intr
 oduce the cactus group\, a relative of the braid group. Like its more famo
 us cousin\, it appears naturally in representation theory and is the funda
 mental group of a very natural space. I will describe this space\, called 
 the moduli space of genus 0 real curves. Then I will discuss a variant of 
 the cactus group\, which we call the virtual cactus group. Along the way\,
  we will see the solution to the following question: what is the space of 
 solutions to the equation\n\na+b=c\, where a\,b\,c are elements of RP1?\n
