Dr. Apoorva Khare, Indian Institute of Science Dr. Apoorva Khare, Indian Institute of Science PRN238Title: Polymath 14: Groups with norms <br><br> Abstract: Consider the following three properties of a general group G: <br> (1) Algebra: G is abelian and torsion-free. <br> (2) Analysis: G is a metric space that admits a "norm", namely, a translation-invariant metric d(.,.) satisfying: d(1,g^n) = |n| d(1,g) for all g in G and integers n. <br> (3) Geometry: G admits a length function with "saturated" subadditivity for equal arguments: l(g^2) = 2 l(g) for all g in G. <br> While these properties may a priori seem different, in fact they turn out to be equivalent. The nontrivial implication amounts to saying that there does not exist a non-abelian group with a "norm". <br> We will discuss motivations from analysis, probability, and geometry; then the proof of the above equivalences; and finally, the logistics of how the problem was solved, via a PolyMath project that began on a blogpost of Terence Tao. <br> (Joint - as D.H.J. PolyMath - with Tobias Fritz, Siddhartha Gadgil, Pace Nielsen, Lior Silberman, and Terence Tao.)1/29/2020 7:30:00 PM1/29/2020 8:30:00 PMFalse
