Last week, I proved five theorems about fusion systems, each with a (relatively) trivial proof. All of these theorems were known, but in each case the proof was (in some cases highly) non-trivial. I will introduce fusion systems and talk a bit about why they are interesting, and then prove some, or maybe all, of the theorems I proved.

The subgroup growth of finitely generated groups was seen last term, in a lecture of Dan Segal. This time, we see representation growth, and how it is similar to, and different from, subgroup growth.
