| Summary |
This volume contains a collection of research articles by leading experts in group theory and some accessible surveys of recent research in the area. Together they provide an overview of the diversity of themes and applications that interest group theorists today. Topics covered in this volume include: combinatorial group theory, varieties of groups, orderable groups, conjugacy classes, profinite groups, probabilistic methods in group theory, graphs connected with groups, subgroup structure, and saturated formations |
