Title
The Hanoi Tower Group
Abstract
The Tower of Hanoi is a very well-known mathematical game or puzzle consisting of three rods and a number of disks of various diameters, which can slide onto any rod. In this talk, we will see this problem from a group theoretical point of view. More precisely, first we will present the family of Groups of automorphisms of regular rooted trees, and then we will construct the so-called Hanoi Tower group, which is a concrete example of a group acting on a regular rooted tree.
