Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0722.00007.] Coxeter defined the group \(G^{p,q,r}\) by the presentation \[ \langle A,B,C\mid A^ p=B^ q=C^ r=(AB)^ 2=(BC)^ 2=(CA)^ 2=(ABC)^ 2=1\rangle. \] We first investigated \(G^{3,7,20}\), using Cayley, in response to a question raised by Steve Wilson, and showed it to be infinite. We re-established the fact that \(G^{3,7,18}\) is infinite, and subsequently have also established that \(G^{3,7,r}\) is infinite for \(r=24\), 26, 27 and 32 (hence, of course, also for any multiples of these values).
