Review text

Using techniques by \textit{G. Wilkes} [Geom. Dedicata 188, 141--163 (2017; Zbl 1369.57003)] and \textit{D. Moldavanski} and \textit{N. Sibyakova} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 123, No. 7, 2017--2020 (1995; Zbl 0834.20029)], the author shows that among all Baumslag-Solitar groups, each residually finite Baumslag-Solitar group is relatively profinite rigid. In particular, this means each residually finite Baumslag-Solitar group can be distinguished by its finite quotients from all other residually finite Baumslag-Solitar groups.
