This book brings together a collection of research articles by leading experts in group theory, alongside accessible survey papers highlighting recent developments in the field. The contributions provide a broad overview of the diverse themes, methods, and applications that characterize contemporary research in group theory.The topics covered include combinatorial and geometric group theory, with attention to varieties, braces, twisted conjugacy classes, and sofic groups; the structural analysis of infinite groups, such as existentially closed groups; and the study of finite groups, encompassing p-groups and maximal subgroups, the generation of simple groups, permutation groups, representations of finite groups, and graphs associated with groups.The work is addressed to researchers in the field.

The papers in this volume represent the proceedings of the Conference entitled “Ischia Group Theory 2010”, which took place at NH Ischia Thermal SPA Resort, Ischia, Naples, Italy, from April 14 to April 17, 2010. The articles in this volume are contributions by speakers and participants of the Conference.The volume contains a collection of research articles by leading experts in group theory and some accessible surveys of recent research in the area. Together they provide an overview of the diversity of themes and applications that interest group theorists today. Topics covered in this volume include: finite p-groups, character and representation theory, combinatorial group theory, varieties of groups, profinite and pro-p-groups, linear groups, graphs connected with groups, subgroup structure, finiteness conditions, radical rings, conjugacy classes, automorphisms.
