Ebook: Groups of Self-Equivalences and Related Topics: Proceedings of a Conference held in Montreal, Canada, Aug. 8–12, 1988

Since the subject of Groups of Self-Equivalences was first discussed in 1958 in a paper of Barcuss and Barratt, a good deal of progress has been achieved. This is reviewed in this volume, first by a long survey article and a presentation of 17 open problems together with a bibliography of the subject, and by a further 14 original research articles.
