 Igor Mineyev (UIUC Math)The topology and analysis of the Hanna Neumann conjecture (continued)Abstract: We provide several approaches to the Hanna Neumann conjecture using topology and analysis. For the topological part, we define systems of complexes, atomic decomposition of graphs, and other concepts. The analytic part is the use of the classical Murray-von Neumann (!) dimension of Hilbert modules. Special cases and generalizations will be discussed.
