The conference continues the tradition of group theoretic conferences
"Groups and Group Rings" I-XI , "Groups and Their Actions 2007"
which held at Poland in 1993-2007 (in Ukraine in 1996).

The discussed topics will include:

--- special aspects of finite p-groups, including
combinatorial and Lie methods in this theory;
--- geometric and combinatorial methods in important
classes of infinite groups;
--- groups of automorphisms of trees;
--- linear groups;
--- varieties of groups;
--- unit groups of rings, with a special emphasis
on unit groups of group rings and related problems.

The lecture time is 50 minutes for the invited speakers
and 15 or 30 minutes for other participants.
