{"product_id":"3-transposition-groups","title":"3-Transposition Groups","description":"In 1970 Bernd Fischer proved his beautiful theorem classifying the almost simple groups generated by 3-transpositions, and in the process discovered three new sporadic groups, now known as the Fischer groups. Since then, the theory of 3-transposition groups has become an important part of finite simple group theory, but Fischer's work has remained unpublished. 3-Transposition Groups contains the first published proof of Fischer's Theorem, written out completely in one place. Fischer's result, while important and deep (covering a number of complex examples), can be understood by any student with some knowledge of elementary group theory and finite geometry.  Part I of this book has minimal prerequisites and could be used as a text for an intermediate level graduate course; parts II and III are aimed at specialists in finite groups.","brand":"None","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46193623040177,"sku":"9780521101028","price":60.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46193623072945,"sku":"9780521571968","price":173.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/8980\/5233\/files\/1_01f1c7f4-6522-4fa4-ad82-9d4b24e196b7.jpg?v=1763718211","url":"https:\/\/www.indigo.ca\/products\/3-transposition-groups","provider":"Indigo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
