Geometry and Group Theory

Groups are sets of symmetries of geometric objects.

Based on this philosophy, we examine the interplay between groups and the associated geometries and geometric objects. We investigate the question of how much group theory is encoded in geometry and, conversely, which aspects of the geometric objects are already clearly determined by the group effects on them.

For more information on what we do, see the research pages and websites of the individual group members.

Prof. Dr. Petra Schwer is leading this group. Dr. Anja Randecker is a junior group leader within the Research Station Geometry and Dynamics and forms, together with Erick Gordillo and Maurice Reichert, a proper subgroup of us.

We are part of the following networks and Organizations:
