DESCRIPTION:\n	\n		\n			\n				TITLE / TITRE\n					Graphs\, R-trees\, & what happens when y
 ou iterate a free group automorphism.\n					\n					ABSTRACT / RÉSUMÉ \n\n				One of the 
 most beautiful interplays in mathematics is between a deformation space an
 d its symmetry group. Let X be a combinatorial object (such as a graph) or
  a topological object (such as a surface). Suppose X admits some further s
 tructure (such as a metric) in a nonunique way. Then the possible choices 
 for the further structure are organized into a deformation space\, on whic
 h a suitable group of symmetries of X acts. For a surface\, this is the ma
 pping class group acting on Teichmuller space\, and for a graph\, this is 
 the free group outer automorphism group acting on Culler-Vogtmann Outer Sp
 ace. We discuss 2 different notions of 'typical R-trees' arising from auto
 morphisms of a free group and their action on Culler-Vogtmann Outer Space.
  Results presented are joint work with I. Kapovich\, J. Maher\, and S.J. T
 aylor.\n			\n		\n	\n\n
