Mathematical Legacy of Reinhold Baer : A Collection of Articles in Honor of the Centenary of the Birth of Reinhold Baer

Reinhold Baer (1902-1979) was a leading figure in twentieth century mathematics, whose work in group theory, geometry, topology, and other areas, foreshadowed many later developments and whose influence continues to be felt today. This volume contains 39 invited papers, written by leading experts in group theory and allied areas, to mark the hundredth anniversary of Baer's birth. The articles paint a vivid picture of the broad spectrum of mathematical research to which Baer and his academic descendents have contributed, and will be of interest to researchers and advanced students alike.Griffith, Phillip is the author of 'Mathematical Legacy of Reinhold Baer : A Collection of Articles in Honor of the Centenary of the Birth of Reinhold Baer', published 2004 under ISBN 9780974698601 and ISBN 0974698601.
