Commutator Subgroup of Thompson's Group F

36 Views Asked by At

I am looking for a proof that the commutator subgroup of F is simple, I have found lots of articles about the commutator subgroup in general but havent found anything directly involving F and am struggling apllying the general case to F. Does anybody know of any articles that have this proof explicitily? Thanks :)
