DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Anna Wienhard\nhosted by Laszlo Erdös\nAbstract: In 1
 872 Felix Klein introduced a new approach to view geometry as the study of
  symmetries. This approach has been very influential both in mathematics a
 s well as in physics. It allows to study different geometric structures in
  a unified framework\, and to investigate the interplay between topologica
 l manifolds and their geometric realizations in a new way. In the past twe
 nty years several new developments led to a revival of these ideas and to 
 a paradigm shift in the study of discrete symmetry groups acting on spaces
  of non-positive curvature. In my talk I will describe the general framewo
 rk\, highlight some of the new developments and discuss selected results o
 n the geometry and dynamics of such group actions.
