ON INDEPENDENT SYSTEMS OF DEFINING RELATIONS FOR FREE BURNSIDE GROUPS OF PERIOD 3

Abstract

We construct systems of independent defining relations for free Burnside groups $B(m,3)$ of ranks $m=2, 3$. The proof for the case $m=2$ is established using the matrix representation of $B(2,3)$. For the case $m=3$ the approach is based on the natural embedding of $B(2,3)$ into $B(3,3)$.
