The book is about (associative, Lie and other) algebras, groups,
semigroups presented by generators and defining relations. They
play a great role in modern mathematics. It is enough to mention
the quantum groups and Hopf algebra theory, the Kac-Moody and
Borcherds algebra theory, the braid groups and Hecke algebra
theory, the Coxeter groups and semisimple Lie algebra theory, the
plactic monoid theory. One of the main problems for such
presentations is the problem of normal forms of their elements.
Classical examples of such normal forms give the
Poincare-Birkhoff-Witt theorem for universal enveloping algebras
and Artin-Markov normal form theorem for braid groups in Burau
generators.What is now called Groebner-Shirshov bases theory is a
general approach to the problem. It was created by a Russian
mathematician A I Shirshov (1921-1981) for Lie algebras
(explicitly) and associative algebras (implicitly) in 1962. A few
years later, H Hironaka created a theory of standard bases for
topological commutative algebra and B Buchberger initiated this
kind of theory for commutative algebras, the Groebner basis theory.
The Shirshov paper was largely unknown outside Russia. The book
covers this gap in the modern mathematical literature. Now
Groebner-Shirshov bases method has many applications both for
classical algebraic structures (associative, Lie algebra, groups,
semigroups) and new structures (dialgebra, pre-Lie algebra,
Rota-Baxter algebra, operads). This is a general and powerful
method in algebra.
