Caleb McFarland: We prove a structure theorem for Γ-labeled graphs G which forbid a fixed Γ-labeled graph H as an immersion in the case that Γ is a finite abelian group. Joint work with Rose McCarty and Paul Wollan.
Richter Jordaan: In this expository talk I will give introduce an approach to the cycle double cover based on the more general problem of finding specific cycle covers of cubic graphs. After stating the basics of the cycle double cover conjecture and structure of a minimal counterexample, I'll try to describe the setup and basic intuition behind how the general cyle cover problem could be used to approach the cycle double cover conjecture.
Owen Huang: We will discuss some recent work with Rose McCarty concerning the product structure of Cayley graphs. We also introduce an integer-valued invariant of finitely generated groups and note its relevance in geometric group theory.
