These are a natural generalization of the well known Bieberbach groups and many results about ordinary Bieberbach groups turn out to generalize to the almost-Bieberbach groups. Moreover, using affine representations, explicit cohomology computations can be carried out, or resulting in a classification of the almost-Bieberbach groups in low dimensions. The concept of a polynomial structure, an alternative for the affine structures that sometimes fail, is introduced.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46893056884887,"sku":"9783540618997","price":7203.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783540618997.webp?v=1770313481","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/almost-bieberbach-groups-affine-and-polynomial-structures-9783540618997","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
