Local–global invariants of finite and infinite groups: Around Burnside from another side

This expository essay is focused on the Shafarevich–Tate set of a group G . Since its introduction for a finite group by Burnside, it has been rediscovered and redefined more than once. We discuss its various incarnations and properties as well as relationships (some of them conjectural) with other...
