Combinatorial Methods: Free Groups, Polynomials, and Free Algebras

by Alexander Mikhalev, Vladimir Shpilrain, Jie-Tai Yu

Book Overview

The main purpose of this book is to show how ideas from combinatorial group theory have spread to two other areas of mathematics: the theory of Lie algebras and affine algebraic geometry. Some of these ideas, in turn, came to combinatorial group theory from low-dimensional topology in the beginning of the 20th Century.
