Wilhelm Magnus (1907-1990), a student of Dehn's circle in Frankfurt and later professor at New York University's Courant Institute, was among the principal architects of modern combinatorial group theory; his coauthors Karrass and Solitar, both of Adelphi University, extended the subject through work on free products with amalgamation and one-relator groups. The book systematically develops free groups and free products, the Nielsen transformations, the Reidemeister-Schreier method for subgroup presentations, the commutator calculus and lower central series, and the theory of one-relator groups, treating in depth the fundamental decision problems formulated by Max Dehn (the word, conjugacy and isomorphism problems) that shaped the subject through the twentieth century. The Russian edition, edited by Moscow group theorist Martin Greendlinger, made this essential text accessible to the large and active Soviet school of combinatorial and geometric group theory and remains a core reference for researchers in the field working in Russian.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44665367953450,"sku":null,"price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/IMG_1565_b9d0bc1c-c3c2-441c-aad9-b402e611dbe7.jpg?v=1786464447","url":"https:\/\/stanzararebooks.com\/products\/magnus-karrass-solitar-combinatorial-group-theory-kombinatornaya-teoriya-grupp-1974-first-edition-of-the-russian-translation","provider":"Stanza Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
