DESCRIPTION:Title: Geometric connections between Artin groups and Artin mon
 oids\n\n(Joint work with Rachael Boyd\, Ruth Charney and Sarah Rees)\n\nAb
 stract: Artin groups are a generalization of braid groups\, first defined 
 by Tits in the 1960s. In their most general setting\, very little is know 
 about Artin groups. However many of the questions which are open for Artin
  groups can be easily answered for Artin monoids. This motivates the study
  of the connection between Artin groups and Artin monoids. In this talk\, 
 I will discuss two different geometric constructions including a CAT(0) cu
 be complex and a version of the Cayley graph. These spaces illustrate the 
 connection between the Artin monoid and group. I’ll introduce some propert
 ies of these spaces how they might lead to further results.\n\nWe are plan
 ning to have a group dinner with the speaker the evening after the seminar
 \, shortly after tea time in the lounge (all are welcome). Please let us k
 now if you would like to attend the group dinner\, in case we need to make
  a reservation in advance.\n\n \n
