Infinite Groups (eBook, ePUB)

A Roadmap to Selected Classical Areas

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book covers a broad swath of the theory of infinite groups, without giving proofs, but with all the concepts and auxiliary results necessary for understanding such results. In other words, this book is an extended directory, or a guide, to some of the more established areas of infinite groups.
