The conference "Geometric and Asymptotic Group Theory with Applications" will be held May 28-31, 2013 at the City College of New York. This conference will be devoted to the study of a variety of topics in geometric and asymptotic group theory, with special emphasis on statistical methods, interactions with theoretical computer science, and applications to information security. The conference will include leading specialists in various aspects of the geometric, asymptotic, and algorithmic group theory. More specifically, this includes: group actions, quasi-isometries, growth, asymptotic invariants, random walks, algorithmic problems and their complexity.Geometric and asymptotic group theory is an essential part of modern mathematics. It interfaces with a number of important areas of mathematics and theoretical computer science, including low-dimensional topology (essential in modern physics), geometry, graph theory, combinatorics, complexity theory, and information theory, in particular information security. The synergistic effect of the interactions between people in these areas that the conference will promote has the potential to result in new long-term collaborations and advances in research.http://www.stevens.edu/algebraic/GAGTA/index.htm

“几何与渐近群论及其应用”会议将于2013年5月28日至31日在纽约城市学院举行。本次会议将致力于研究几何和渐近群论中的各种主题，特别强调统计方法，与理论计算机科学的相互作用，以及在信息安全中的应用。会议将包括几何、渐近和算法群论各方面的顶尖专家。更具体地说，这包括：群体行为、准等距、增长、渐近不变量、随机游走、算法问题及其复杂性。几何渐近群论是现代数学的重要组成部分。它与数学和理论计算机科学的许多重要领域相结合，包括低维拓扑（在现代物理学中必不可少）、几何、图论、组合学、复杂性理论和信息论，特别是信息安全。会议将促进的这些领域人员之间相互作用的协同效应有可能导致新的长期合作和研究进展。http://www.stevens.edu/algebraic/GAGTA/index.htm
