Jakob Schneider
From Oktober 2016 to November 2020 I was a PhD student at the chair of geometry under the supervision of Andreas Thom. I am currently working there as a postdoc.
My main interests are asymptotic statements about families of finite groups and metric approximation by such groups. For example I am interested in properties of the classical groups of Lie type.
My thesis:
My articles:
- Some remarks on finitarily approximable groups (joint with Andreas Thom and Nikolay Nikolov)
- A note on the normal subgroup lattice of ultraproducts of finite quasisimple groups (joint with Andreas Thom)
- Word images in symmetric and classical groups of Lie type are dense (joint with Andreas Thom)
- On groups with unbounded Cayley graphs
