    In the article under review, the author gives an overview of algorithms for finitely \(L\)-presented groups. As applications, using these algorithms, the author investigates the class of self-similar groups \(\Gamma_p\) for \(3\leq p\leq 11\). After recalling the notion of a self-similar group, the author demonstrates the application of his algorithms to do the following: \(\bullet\) to compute the isomorphism type of the lower central series sections \(\gamma_c\Gamma_p/\gamma_{c+1}\Gamma_p\). \(\bullet\) to compute the isomorphism type of the Dwyer quotients \(M_c(\Gamma_p)\) of their Schur multiplier. \(\bullet\) to determine the number of low-index subgroups of the groups \(\Gamma_p\). \(\bullet\) to compute the isomorphism type of the sections \(\Gamma_p^{(c)}/\Gamma_p^{(c+1)}\) of the derived series.
