DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/SiN/46/">Asp
 ects of growth in Baumslag-Solitar groups</a>\nby Eric Freden (Southern Ut
 ah University) as part of Symmetry in Newcastle\n\n\nAbstract\nIn 1997\, G
 rigorchuk and de la Harpe suggested computing the growth series for the Ba
 umslag-Solitar group BS(2\,3). After 25 years\, this is still an open prob
 lem. In fact\, the growth of only the solvable groups BS(1\,n) and automat
 ic groups BS(n\,n) are known. In this talk I will review what has since be
 en discovered about these remarkable groups and conclude with new unpublis
 hed results concerning the exponents of growth for the subfamily BS(2\,2n)
