Sermon: MS R I
From Solomon's Cube —
"Here MSRI, an acronym for Mathematical Sciences Research Institute,
is pronounced 'Misery.' See Stephen King [and] K.C. Cole . . . ."
From a manuscript by Mikhail Gromov cited yesterday in MSRI Program —

MSRI Program
"The field of geometric group theory emerged from Gromov’s insight
that even mathematical objects such as groups, which are defined
completely in algebraic terms, can be profitably viewed as geometric
objects and studied with geometric techniques."
— Mathematical Sciences Research Institute, 2016:
See also some writings of Gromov from 2015-16:
- Memorandum Ergo (October 29, 2015)
- Great Circle of Mysteries (November 15, 2015)
- Quotations and Ideas (April 15, 2016)
For a simpler example than those discussed at MSRI
of both algebraic and geometric techniques applied to
the same group, see a post of May 19, 2017,
"From Algebra to Geometry." That post reviews
an earlier illustration —
