"The study of the mapping class group Mod(S) is a classical topic that is experiencing a renaissance. It lies at the juncture of geometry, topology, and group theory. This book explains as many important theorems, examples, and techniques as possible, quickly and directly, while…
This series of papers is aimed towards the calculation of the cohomology of the mapping class group of a closed oriented surface of genus two. This is all 2, 3, and 5-torsion. The mod 5 cohomology is given in the first paper, the mod 3 cohomology in the second, and the mod 2 coh…
This book is a self-contained account of the theory of classgroups of group rings. The guiding philosophy has been to describe all the basic properties of such classgroups in terms of character functions. This point of view is due to A. Frohlich and it achieves a considerable si…
