DESCRIPTION:A group is<i> tubular</i> if it splits as a graph of groups wi
 th rank 2 free abelian vertex groups and infinite cyclic edge groups. Tubu
 lar groups have been an interesting source of counterexamples in geometric
  group theory. I will introduce the examples of Gersten and Wise before mo
 ving onto recent results relating to cubulating tubular groups. This will 
 include a classification of virtually special tubular groups.&nbsp\; <br>
