Sur une majoration du nombre de groupes définis par générateurs et ayant une seule relation. (An upper bound for the number of groups defined by generators and only one relator) (Q1096021): Difference between revisions

Relators in a free monoid are counted here by counting the number of equivalence classes r of words of given lengths where \(r\in C/{\mathcal R}\) such that C equals the set of all cyclically reduced words and \({\mathcal R}\) is defined by: u\({\mathcal R}v\) if and only if u and v or u and \(\bar v\) are conjugates. Here \(\bar v\) denotes a formal inverse of v. The result is then applied to one-relator groups.
