概要 | Topological rigidity is one of the main phenomena in geometric
topology: it is a cousin of the Mostow-Margulis theory in
differential geometry. This lecture will discuss some topics from
among the failure of the equivariant version of the rigidity
conjecture, how such problems are related to the Baum-Connes
conjecture for groups with torsion, a topological approach to Royden's
theorem on the symmetries of the Teichmuller metric, and
counterexamples to a conjecture of Conner and Raymond.
