DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/SiN/44/">Gro
 ups acting on regular trees and t.d.l.c. groups</a>\nby George Willis (Uni
 versity of Newcastle) as part of Symmetry in Newcastle\n\nLecture held in 
 Lambert Lounge\, US 321.\n\nAbstract\nGroups acting on regular trees and t
 .d.l.c. groups\nAbstract: Groups of automorphisms of regular trees are an 
 important source of examples of and intuition about totally disconnected\,
  locally compact (t.d.l.c.) groups. Indeed\, Pierre-Emmanuel Caprice has c
 alled them a microcosm the general theory of t.d.l.c. groups. Although muc
 h is know about them\, many questions remain open.\nThis talk will survey 
 some of what is known about groups of tree automorphisms and how it relate
 s to the general theory.\n
