Combinatorial and Geometric Group Theory

Consists of 12 papers presented during meetings on computational group theory that took place in November 2000 and April 2001. The first paper updates a list of open problems originally published in 1998. Three of the papers survey the known results about boundaries of hyperbolic groups, fixed groups of finitely generated free groups, and automorphism groups of compact Riemann surfaces. Other topics include thin groups of fractions, test ranks of finitely generated abelian groups, and classification of the finite generalized tetrahedron groups. No index. Annotation c.
