Abstract: The Banach-Tarski paradox is one of the most striking phenomena in all of mathematics. It is actually a mathematical fact, yet denoted as a “paradox” due to its counterintuitive nature. In this talk, he will describe the paradox and some of the underlying measure-theoretic and group-theoretic reasons behind it.
