Abstract

The Grothendieck-Teichmüller group is a profinite group that contains the absolute Galois group of the rational numbers and is conjecturally isomorphic to it. In this talk I will explain how one can understand this group using the homotopy theory of operads. This is joint work with Pedro Boavida de Brito and Marcy Robertson
