Several results related to the whole class are formulated. In particular, all finite, abelian, and free groups are classified. In addition, we provide detailed information and complete proofs for several groups from the class, with the intention of showing the main methods and techniques used in the classification.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-12-07T04:49:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20E08" ], "keywords": [ "main methods", "classification", "free groups", "complete proofs" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 37, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math.....12178B" } } }
