The main aim of Mic Seminars is to bring together young mathematicians from different universities. It provides an informal context to share knowledge and ideas, and to build social networks within the different mathematical communities.
The next talk is on the 3rd of March at 17:00, in room 2AB40.

Title: Profinite detection of free factors
Abstract: How much of an infinite group can be recovered from its finite quotients? Often, not much, but when restricted to certain classes of groups they become surpisingly effective at describing the group structure. After introducing free products and free factors, I'll explain how such decompositions leave traces in finite quotients and discuss why turning those traces into detection theorems is subtle, highlighting examples, recent progress and open problems.
