Groups and model theory : a conference in honor of Rudiger Gobel's 70th birthday, May 30-June 3, 2011, Conference Center "Die Wolfsburg," Mulheim an der Ruhr, Germany

The 23 papers have been refereed according to strict standards. Mathematicians and scientists discuss such matters as rigid abelian groups and the probabilistic method, looking for indecomposable right bounded complexes, kernel modules of cotorsion pairs, upper cardinal bounds for absolute structures, subgroups of totally projective primary abelian groups and direct sums of cyclic groups, generic endomorphisms of homogeneous structures, special pairs and automorphisms of centerless groups, and some results on the algebraic entropy.
