About this title

Synopsis

Primarily an introduction to combinatorial group theory, this book has the secondary aim of introducing a wide variety of examples of groups and types of groups. The emphasis is algebraic rather than topological. The only background required is some basic knowledge of linear algebra, group theory and ring theory.

Book Description

The aim of this book is to provide an introduction to combinatorial group theory. Any reader who has completed first courses in linear algebra, group theory and ring theory will find this book accessible. The emphasis is on computational techniques but rigorous proofs of all theorems are supplied.This new edition has been revised throughout, including new exercises and an additional chapter on proving that certain groups are infinite.
