Ebook: Stable Groups (London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series)

The study of stable groups connects model theory, algebraic geometry and group theory. In this book, the general theory of stable groups is developed from the beginning (including a chapter on preliminaries in group theory and model theory), concentrating on the model- and group-theoretic aspects. It brings together the various extensions of the original finite rank theory under a unified perspective and provides a coherent exposition of the current knowledge in the field.
