Abstract: Given a finitely generated group G and a finite subset S of its generators, the Cayley graph Γ(G, S) associates to G a metric space, and thus enables geometric methods to be applied for the study of the group G. I will discuss this approach; in particular, growth of groups and Gromov’s polynomial growth theorem.
