Growth in groups: ideas and perspectives

H. A. Helfgott

Abstract: This will be a survey of methods developed in the last few years to prove results on growth in non-commutative groups. These techniques have their roots in both additive combinatorics and group theory, as well as other fields. We will discuss linear algebraic groups, with SL_2(Z/pZ) as the basic example, as well as permutation groups.
