Download or read book Introduction To Commutative Algebra written by Michael F. Atiyah and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 2018. This book grew out of a course of lectures given to third year undergraduates at Oxford University and it has the modest aim of producing a rapid introduction to the subject. It is designed to be read by students who have had a first elementary course in general algebra. On the other hand, it is not intended as a substitute for the more voluminous tracts such as Zariski-Samuel or Bourbaki. We have concentrated on certain central topics, and large areas, such as field theory, are not touched. In content we cover rather more ground than Northcott and our treatment is substantially different in that, following the modern trend, we put more emphasis on modules and localization.

Download or read book Commutative Algebra Through Exercises written by Andrea Bandini and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a first introduction to the fundamental concepts of commutative algebra. What sets it apart from other textbooks is the extensive collection of 400 solved exercises, providing readers with the opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge to practical problem solving, fostering a deeper and more thorough understanding of the subject. The topics presented here are not commonly found in a single text. Consequently, the first part presents definitions, properties, and results crucial for understanding and solving the exercises, serving also as a valuable reference. The second part contains the exercises and a section with "True or False?" questions, which serves as a valid self-assessment test. Considerable effort has been invested in crafting solutions that provide the essential details, aiming for a well-balanced presentation. We intend to guide students systematically through the challenging process of writing mathematical proofs with formal correctness and clarity. Our approach is constructive, aiming to illustrate concepts by applying them to the analysis of multivariate polynomial rings and modules over a principal ideal domain (PID) whenever feasible. Algorithms for computing these objects facilitate the generation of diverse examples. In particular, the structure of finitely generated modules over a PID is analyzed using the Smith canonical form of matrices. Furthermore, various properties of polynomial rings are investigated through the application of Buchberger’s Algorithm for computing Gröbner bases. This book is intended for advanced undergraduates or master’s students, assuming only basic knowledge of finite fields, Abelian groups, and linear algebra. This approach aims to inspire the curiosity of readers and encourages them to find their own proofs while providing detailed solutions to support their learning. It also provides students with the necessary tools to pursue more advanced studies in commutative algebra and related subjects.
Download or read book Undergraduate Commutative Algebra written by Miles Reid and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1995-11-30 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commutative algebra is at the crossroads of algebra, number theory and algebraic geometry. This textbook is affordable and clearly illustrated, and is intended for advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate students with some previous experience of rings and fields. Alongside standard algebraic notions such as generators of modules and the ascending chain condition, the book develops in detail the geometric view of a commutative ring as the ring of functions on a space. The starting point is the Nullstellensatz, which provides a close link between the geometry of a variety V and the algebra of its coordinate ring A=k[V]; however, many of the geometric ideas arising from varieties apply also to fairly general rings. The final chapter relates the material of the book to more advanced topics in commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. It includes an account of some famous 'pathological' examples of Akizuki and Nagata, and a brief but thought-provoking essay on the changing position of abstract algebra in today's world.

Download or read book Mostly Commutative Algebra written by Antoine Chambert-Loir and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-08 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book stems from lectures on commutative algebra for 4th-year university students at two French universities (Paris and Rennes). At that level, students have already followed a basic course in linear algebra and are essentially fluent with the language of vector spaces over fields. The topics introduced include arithmetic of rings, modules, especially principal ideal rings and the classification of modules over such rings, Galois theory, as well as an introduction to more advanced topics such as homological algebra, tensor products, and algebraic concepts involved in algebraic geometry. More than 300 exercises will allow the reader to deepen his understanding of the subject. The book also includes 11 historical vignettes about mathematicians who contributed to commutative algebra.
Download or read book Algebraic Geometry and Commutative Algebra written by Siegfried Bosch and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-04-22 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Algebraic Geometry is a fascinating branch of Mathematics that combines methods from both Algebra and Geometry. It transcends the limited scope of pure Algebra by means of geometric construction principles. Putting forward this idea, Grothendieck revolutionized Algebraic Geometry in the late 1950s by inventing schemes. Schemes now also play an important role in Algebraic Number Theory, a field that used to be far away from Geometry. The new point of view paved the way for spectacular progress, such as the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem by Wiles and Taylor. This book explains the scheme-theoretic approach to Algebraic Geometry for non-experts, while more advanced readers can use it to broaden their view on the subject. A separate part presents the necessary prerequisites from Commutative Algebra, thereby providing an accessible and self-contained introduction to advanced Algebraic Geometry. Every chapter of the book is preceded by a motivating introduction with an informal discussion of its contents and background. Typical examples, and an abundance of exercises illustrate each section. Therefore the book is an excellent companion for self-studying or for complementing skills that have already been acquired. It can just as well serve as a convenient source for (reading) course material and, in any case, as supplementary literature. The present edition is a critical revision of the earlier text.

As part of the Modern Birkhäuser Classics series, the publisher is proud to make Introduction to Commutative Algebra and Algebraic Geometry available to a wider audience. Aimed at students who have taken a basic course in algebra, the goal of the text is to present important results concerning the representation of algebraic varieties as intersections of the least possible number of hypersurfaces and—a closely related problem—with the most economical generation of ideals in Noetherian rings. Along the way, one encounters many basic concepts of commutative algebra and algebraic geometry and proves many facts which can then serve as a basic stock for a deeper study of these subjects.
Download or read book Computational Algebra Course And Exercises With Solutions written by Ihsen Yengui and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2021-05-17 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book intends to provide material for a graduate course on computational commutative algebra and algebraic geometry, highlighting potential applications in cryptography. Also, the topics in this book could form the basis of a graduate course that acts as a segue between an introductory algebra course and the more technical topics of commutative algebra and algebraic geometry.This book contains a total of 124 exercises with detailed solutions as well as an important number of examples that illustrate definitions, theorems, and methods. This is very important for students or researchers who are not familiar with the topics discussed. Experience has shown that beginners who want to take their first steps in algebraic geometry are usually discouraged by the difficulty of the proposed exercises and the absence of detailed answers. Therefore, exercises (and their solutions) as well as examples occupy a prominent place in this course.This book is not designed as a comprehensive reference work, but rather as a selective textbook. The many exercises with detailed answers make it suitable for use in both a math or computer science course.

Download or read book Algebraic Geometry written by Ulrich Görtz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-08-06 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the reader to modern algebraic geometry. It presents Grothendieck's technically demanding language of schemes that is the basis of the most important developments in the last fifty years within this area. A systematic treatment and motivation of the theory is emphasized, using concrete examples to illustrate its usefulness. Several examples from the realm of Hilbert modular surfaces and of determinantal varieties are used methodically to discuss the covered techniques. Thus the reader experiences that the further development of the theory yields an ever better understanding of these fascinating objects. The text is complemented by many exercises that serve to check the comprehension of the text, treat further examples, or give an outlook on further results. The volume at hand is an introduction to schemes. To get startet, it requires only basic knowledge in abstract algebra and topology. Essential facts from commutative algebra are assembled in an appendix. It will be complemented by a second volume on the cohomology of schemes.
Download or read book Exercises in Classical Ring Theory written by T.Y. Lam and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based in large part on the comprehensive "First Course in Ring Theory" by the same author, this book provides a comprehensive set of problems and solutions in ring theory that will serve not only as a teaching aid to instructors using that book, but also for students, who will see how ring theory theorems are applied to solving ring-theoretic problems and how good proofs are written. The author demonstrates that problem-solving is a lively process: in "Comments" following many solutions he discusses what happens if a hypothesis is removed, whether the exercise can be further generalized, what would be a concrete example for the exercise, and so forth. The book is thus much more than a solution manual.
