## Upcoming CARMA Events

 CARMA SEMINAR Speaker: Mr Chris Banks, CARMA, The University of Newcastle Title: On simple groups acting on trees Location: V205, Mathematics Building (Callaghan), The University of Newcastle Time and Date: 4:00 pm, Wed, 23rd Apr 2014 Abstract: In this talk I will present a general method of finding simple groups acting on trees. This process, beginning with any group $G$ acting on a tree, produces more groups known as the $k$-closures of $G$. I will use several examples to highlight the versatility of this method, and I will discuss the properties of the $k$-closures that allow us to find abstractly simple groups.

[Permanent link] CARMA WORKSHOP GAGTA8 Location: Newcastle, NSW Dates: Mon, 21st Jul 2014 - Fri, 25th Jul 2014 The eighth edition of the conference series GAGTA (Geometric and Asymptotic Group Theory with Applications) will be held in Newcastle, Australia July 21-25 (Mon-Fri) 2014. GAGTA conferences are devoted to the study of a variety of areas in geometric and combinatorial group theory, including asymptotic and probabilistic methods, as well as algorithmic and computational topics involving groups. In particular, areas of interest include group actions, isoperimetric functions, growth, asymptotic invariants, random walks, algebraic geometry over groups, algorithmic problems and their complexity, generic properties and generic complexity, and applications to non-commutative cryptography. Visit the conference web sitefor more information. [Permanent link] ICERM WORKSHOP Challenges in 21st Century Experimental Mathematical Computation Location: Brown University Dates: Mon, 21st Jul 2014 - Fri, 25th Jul 2014 [Permanent link] AMSI EVENT EViMS 2: Effective use of Visualisation in the Mathematical Sciences Location: (Canberra), Australian National University Dates: Fri, 21st Nov 2014 - Sun, 23rd Nov 2014 The Mathematical Sciences Institute will host a three day workshop on more effective use of visualization in mathematics, physics, and statistics, from the perspectives of education, research and outreach. This is the second EViMS meeting, following the highly successful one held in Newcastle in November 2012. Our aim for the workshop is to help mathematical scientists understand the opportunities, risks and benefits of visualization, in research and education, in a world where visual content and new methods are becoming ubiquitous. Visit the conference website for more information. [Permanent link] EXTERNAL EVENT 2014 ANZAMP annual meeting Location: The University of Melbourne Dates: Mon, 8th Dec 2014 - Fri, 12th Dec 2014 The annual meeting of the Australian and New Zealand Association of Mathematical Physics will be incorporated into the 8th Australia New Zealand Mathematics Convention at the University of Melbourne. For details, please visit the convention website.
