Two-Dimensional Homotopy and Combinatorial Group Theory

by Cynthia Hog-Angeloni, Wolfgang Metzler, Allan J. Sieradski

Basic work on two-dimensional homotopy theory dates back to K. Reidemeister and J. H. C. Whitehead. Much work in this area has been done since then, and this book considers the current state of knowledge in all the aspects of the subject. The editors start with introductory chapters on low-dimensional topology, covering both the geometric and algebraic sides of the subject, the latter including crossed modules, Reidemeister-Peiffer identities, and...
