***Topological Methods in Group Theory*** is about the interplay between algebraic topology and the theory of infinite discrete groups. The author has kept three kinds of readers in mind: graduate students who have had an introductory course in algebraic topology and who need a bridge from common kn

The graph-theory derived model for the bonding topology in the globally delocalized polyhedral boranes B6H;-and Bl2H1:-is evaluated by comparison of the energies of the core molecular orbitals with those obtained by the 1962 LCAO-MO extended Hiickel calculations of Hoffmann and Lipscomb. Of particul
Attempts to solve the famous Four Color Problem led to fruitful discoveries and rich coloring theories. In this talk, some old and some recent applications of tools from topology to graph coloring problems will be presented. In particular, the following subjects will be treated: The use of Euler's f
In this book, developed from courses taught at the University of London, the author aims to show the value of using topological methods in combinatorial group theory. The topological material is given in terms of the fundamental groupoid, giving results and proofs that are both stronger and simpler
