Abstract

Groups can be graphically represented using edge colored graphs. For a given group G, the color preserving bijections of the graph of G form a group themselves, called the isometry group. I did research in collaboration with David Byrne. The central goal of our research was to classify the isometry groups of all groups. My thesis covers the theorems I have shown that have contributed to our complete classification.
