Markov's Theorem and 100 Years of the Uniqueness Conjecture A Mathematical Journey from Irrational Numbers to Perfect Matchings

This book takes the reader on a mathematical journey, from a number-theoretic point of view, to the realm of Markov’s theorem and the uniqueness conjecture, gradually unfolding many beautiful connections until everything falls into place in the proof of Markov’s theorem. What makes the Markov theme...
