      Zoltan Halasi: Babai’s conjecture for classical groups with generating sets containing transvections

      19th April, 2021
      Watch LaterRemove Cinema Mode

      A well-known conjecture of Babai states that if G is any finite simple group and X is a generating set of G, then the diameter of the Cayley graph Cay(G, X) is bounded by a polylogarithmic function of |G|. The goal of the talk is to sketch a proof of such a bound in the case that X contains a transvection.

      This video is part of the Webinar in Additive Combinatorics series, and this is their YouTube channel.
