A pro-p group is the inverse limit of some system of finite p-groups, that is, of groups of prime-power order where the prime - conventionally denoted p - is fixed. Thus from one point of view, to study a pro-p group is the same as studying an infinite family of finite groups;

Emphasizing on the construction and examination of many classes of examples, this book presents a clear picture of the rich universe of pro-p groups, in its unity and diversity. It discusses thirty open problems in the appendix. It is suitable for graduate students and researcher...s in group theory, number theory, and algebra. Read more
