Event details
Almost finitely presented groups, or groups of type FP_2, lie somewhere between finitely generated groups and finitely presented groups. Until recently they were thought to be a lot closer to finitely presented groups. I will describe a recent result in which they behave more like arbitrary finitely generated groups.
