Abstract

This note is a reproduction of the well known and historically significant series of notes called "The Edmonton Notes on Nilpotent Groups" based on lectures given by Philip Hall using the copy found in the Queen Mary College Mathematics Notes series. We use the original numbering of statements, definitions, footnotes, proofs, abstract, etc. to recover as much of the original document as possible.
