Add your own review!

Overview

This book is essentially self-contained and requires only a basic abstract algebra course as background. The book includes and extends much of the classical theory of SL(2) representations of groups. Readers will find SL(2) Representations of Finitely Presented Groups relevant to geometric theory of three dimensional manifolds, representations of infinite groups, and invariant theory. Features...* A new finitely computable invariant H[*p] associated to groups and used to study the SL(2) representations of *p * Invariant theory and knot theory related through SL(2) representations of knot groups.
