{"product_id":"groups-graphs-and-trees-john-meier-9780521895453","title":"Groups, Graphs and Trees: An Introduction to the Geometry of Infinite Groups","description":"This outstanding new book presents the modern, geometric approach to group theory, in an accessible and engaging approach to the subject. Topics include group actions, the construction of Cayley graphs, and connections to formal language theory and geometry. Theorems are balanced by specific examples such as Baumslag-Solitar groups, the Lamplighter group and Thompson's group. Only exposure to undergraduate-level abstract algebra is presumed, and from that base the core techniques and theorems are developed and recent research is explored. Exercises and figures throughout the text encourage the development of geometric intuition. Ideal for advanced undergraduates looking to deepen their understanding of groups, this book will also be of interest to graduate students and researchers as a gentle introduction to geometric group theory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Meier\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521895456\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521895453\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/31\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 244\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.10w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2008 pg. 34\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2009","brand":"John Meier","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43920084828415,"sku":"9780521895453","price":139.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_0b11fb28-87eb-477f-b140-883ee996e0d8.jpg?v=1680813517","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/groups-graphs-and-trees-john-meier-9780521895453","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
