With its many examples, exercises, and full solutions to selected exercises, this text provides a gentle introduction that is ideal for self-study and an excellent preparation for applications. A distinguished feature of the presentation is that algebraic and geometric techniques are balanced. The beautiful theory of train tracks is illustrated by two nontrivial examples. Presupposing only a basic knowledge of algebra, the book is addressed to anyone interested in group theory: from advanced undergraduate and graduate students to specialists.Groups & group theorybicsscGroup theory and generalizationsmscGroups & group theoryGroup theory and generalizations20-xxmscBogopolski Oleg471660ch0018173BOOK9910151935403321Introduction to group theory229596UNINA02408nam 22006734a 450 991077877360332120230421033212.01-280-21045-197866102104590-309-59865-60-585-14938-0(CKB)110986584752264(SSID)ssj0000229776(PQKBManifestationID)11236143(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000229776(PQKBWorkID)10172768(PQKB)10501254(MiAaPQ)EBC3376674(Au-PeEL)EBL3376674(CaPaEBR)ebr10056950(OCoLC)697785532(EXLCZ)9911098658475226419981008d1998 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtccrProviding national statistics on health and social welfare programs in an era of change[electronic resource] summmary of a workshop /Constance F.
