AlgTopReview4: Free abelian groups and non-commutative groups
Free abelian groups play an important role in algebraic topology. These are groups modelled on the additive group of integers Z, and their theory is analogous to the theory of vector spaces. We state the Fundamental Theorem of Finitely Generated Commutative Groups, which says that any such

Tobias Moede - Coclass theory for nilpotent associative algebras
The coclass of a finite p-group of order p^n and class c is defined as n-c. Using coclass as the primary invariant in the investigation of finite p-groups turned out to be a very fruitful approach. Together with Bettina Eick, we have developed a coclass theory for nilpotent associative alg
