SUMMARY:What is a relatively hyperbolic group? - Harry Petyt (Bristol)

DESCRIPTION:Hyperbolic groups form a large and important subclass of finit
 ely generated groups. They are defined by a geometric condition\, and this
  allows one to use tools from geometry to make strong group-theoretic stat
 ements.\n\nThe aim of this talk is to motivate the definition of relativel
 y hyperbolic groups\, which are a way to generalise hyperbolic groups with
 out losing too much geometric information. To do so we will look at hyperb
 olic 3-manifolds of finite volume.
