Groups & group theory

Paperback. Combinatorial group theory is a loosely defined subject, with close connections to topology and logic. The objective of combinatorial group theory is the systematic development of algebraic techniques to settle such questions. This title features notes that deals with many topics in combinatorial group theory. Series: Lectures in Mathematics. ETH Zurich. Num Pages: 178 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBC; PBG; PBPD; PBV. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 233 x 155 x 9. Weight in Grams: 580.

Paperback. This work develops some of the basics of the interaction of homological algebra, the cohomology of groups and modular representation theory. It reflects a shift towards a more categorical view of representation theory, and an expansion of the viewpoint to include infinitely generated modules. Series: Lectures in Mathematics. ETH Zurich.

Hardback. Daniel Quillen's definition of the higher algebraic K-groups of a ring emphasized the importance of computing the homology of groups of matrices. This book traces the development of this theory from Quillen's fundamental calculation. It presents the stability theorems and low-dimensional results of A Suslin, W van der Kallen and others.

Hardback. Systematically treats the theory of groups generated by a conjugacy class of subgroups, satisfying certain generational properties on pairs of subgroups. For finite groups, this theory has been developed in the 1970s mainly by M Aschbacher, B Fischer and the author. It was extended to arbitrary groups in the 1990s by the author.

Paperback. Looks at group cohomology with tools that come from homotopy theory that give both decomposition theorems (which rely on homotopy colimits to obtain a description of the cohomology of a group in terms of the cohomology of suitable subgroups) and global structure theorems (which exploit the action of the ring of topological cohomology operations).
