In these notes we recall the classical notions of growth and growth rate for finitely generated groups and the main results in the theory related to Milnor’s problem. Then, we describe how one can extend these concepts and results to the general case of group endomorphisms, using the language and features of the algebraic entropy. Finally, we mention the main properties of the algebraic entropy, paying special attention to its additivity with respect to short exact sequences.

Abstract

In these notes we recall the classical notions of growth and growth rate for finitely generated groups and the main results in the theory related to Milnor’s problem. Then, we describe how one can extend these concepts and results to the general case of group endomorphisms, using the language and features of the algebraic entropy. Finally, we mention the main properties of the algebraic entropy, paying special attention to its additivity with respect to short exact sequences.
