Abstract

Quasirational presentations (QRQR-presentations) of (pro-pp)groups are studied. Such presentations include, in particular, aspherical presentations of discrete groups and their subpresentations and pro-pp-groups with a single defining relation. Using schematization of QRQR-presentations we answer a variation of J.-P. Serre's question on one-relator pro-pp-groups.

Text structure has been reorganized. Material on Melnikov's conjecture was singled out into a different article. Now in English, still a preliminary version any comments are wellcome
