A sufficient condition for the second derived factor group to be finite
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 January 2009
Extract
This paper concerns an application of an algorithm for the second derived factor group as described by Howse and Johnson in [3]. This algorithm has as its basis theFox derivative (see [1]), a mapping from the free group F to the group-ring ℤF, definedas follows: let X be a set of generators of a group G, and let w = y1…yk with each yi∈X±1.
