Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1980s, profound connections were discovered relating modern algebraic geometry and algebraic $K$-theory to arithmetic problems. The term ``arithmetic algebraic geometry'' was coined during that period and is now used to denote an entire branch of modern number theory. These same developments in algebraic geometry and $K$-theory greatly influenced research on the arithmetic of fields in general, and the algebraic theory of quadratic forms and the theory of finite-dimensional division algebras in particular. This book contains papers presented at an AMS Summer Research Institute held in July 1992 at the University of California, Santa Barbara. The purpose of the conference was to provide a broad overview of the tools from algebraic geometry and $K$-theory that have proved to be the most powerful in solving problems in the theory of quadratic forms and division algebras. In addition, the conference provided a venue for exposition of recent research. A substantial portion of the lectures of the major conference speakers--Colliot-Thelene, Merkurjev, Raskind, Saltman, Suslin, Swan--are reproduced in the expository articles in this book.
Download or read book Algebraic K Theory Connections with Geometry and Topology written by John F. Jardine and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 563 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A NATO Advanced Study Institute entitled "Algebraic K-theory: Connections with Geometry and Topology" was held at the Chateau Lake Louise, Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada from December 7 to December 11 of 1987. This meeting was jointly supported by NATO and the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, and was sponsored in part by the Canadian Mathematical Society. This book is the volume of proceedings for that meeting. Algebraic K-theory is essentially the study of homotopy invariants arising from rings and their associated matrix groups. More importantly perhaps, the subject has become central to the study of the relationship between Topology, Algebraic Geometry and Number Theory. It draws on all of these fields as a subject in its own right, but it serves as well as an effective translator for the application of concepts from one field in another. The papers in this volume are representative of the current state of the subject. They are, for the most part, research papers which are primarily of interest to researchers in the field and to those aspiring to be such. There is a section on problems in this volume which should be of particular interest to students; it contains a discussion of the problems from Gersten's well-known list of 1973, as well as a short list of new problems.

This book was released on 1999-03-12 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Proceedings volume is divided into two parts. The first part consists of lectures given during the first two weeks devoted to a workshop featuring state-of-the-art expositions on 'Overview of Algebraic K-theory' including various constructions, examples, and illustrations from algebra, number theory, algebraic topology, and algebraic/differential geometry; as well as on more concentrated topics involving connections of K-theory with Galois, etale, cyclic, and motivic (co)homologies; values of zeta functions, and Arithmetics of Chow groups and zero cycles. The second part consists of research papers arising from the symposium lectures in the third week.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proceedings volume from the March 1996 conference is dedicated to the late Bob Thomason, one of the leading research mathematicians specializing in algebraic K-theory. Twelve contributions include research papers treated in the lectures at the conference, articles inspired by those lectures, an exposition of Thomason's famous result concerning the relationship between algebraic K-theory and etale cohomology, and an exposition explaining and elaborating upon unpublished work of O. Gabber on Bloch-Ogus-Gersten type resolutions in K-theory and algebraic geometry. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume outlines the proceedings of the conference on "Quadratic Forms and Their Applications" held at University College Dublin. It includes survey articles and research papers ranging from applications in topology and geometry to the algebraic theory of quadratic forms and its history. Various aspects of the use of quadratic forms in algebra, analysis, topology, geometry, and number theory are addressed. Special features include the first published proof of the Conway-Schneeberger Fifteen Theorem on integer-valued quadratic forms and the first English-language biography of Ernst Witt, founder of the theory of quadratic forms.
Download or read book Bilinear Algebra written by Kazimierz Szymiczek and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Giving an easily accessible elementary introduction to the algebraic theory of quadratic forms, this book covers both Witt's theory and Pfister's theory of quadratic forms. Leading topics include the geometry of bilinear spaces, classification of bilinear spaces up to isometry depending on the ground field, formally real fields, Pfister forms, the Witt ring of an arbitrary field (characteristic two included), prime ideals of the Witt ring, Brauer group of a field, Hasse and Witt invariants of quadratic forms, and equivalence of fields with respect to quadratic forms. Problem sections are included at the end of each chapter. There are two appendices: the first gives a treatment of Hasse and Witt invariants in the language of Steinberg symbols, and the second contains some more advanced problems in 10 groups, including the u-invariant, reduced and stable Witt rings, and Witt equivalence of fields.

Download or read book Algebraic K Theory Commutative Algebra and Algebraic Geometry written by R. Keith Dennis and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1992 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-1960's, several Italian mathematicians began to study the connections between classical arguments in commutative algebra and algebraic geometry, and the contemporaneous development of algebraic K-theory in the US. These connections were exemplified by the work of Andreotti-Bombieri, Salmon, and Traverso on seminormality, and by Bass-Murthy on the Picard groups of polynomial rings. Interactions proceeded far beyond this initial point to encompass Chow groups of singular varieties, complete intersections, and applications of K-theory to arithmetic and real geometry. This volume contains the proceedings from a US-Italy Joint Summer Seminar, which focused on this circle of ideas. The conference, held in June 1989 in Santa Margherita Ligure, Italy, was supported jointly by the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche and the National Science Foundation. The book contains contributions from some of the leading experts in this area.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conference proceedings volume is produced in connection with the second Great Lakes K-theory Conference that was held at The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences in March 1996. The volume is dedicated to the late Bob Thomason, one of the leading research mathematicians specializing in algebraic K-theory. In addition to research papers treated directly in the lectures at the conference, this volume contains the following: i) several timely articles inspired by those lectures (particularly by that of V. Voevodsky), ii) an extensive exposition by Steve Mitchell of Thomason's famous result concerning the relationship between algebraic K-theory and etale cohomology, iii) a definitive exposition by J-L. Colliot-Thelene, R. Hoobler, and B. Kahn (explaining and elaborating upon unpublished work of O. Gabber) of Bloch-Ogus-Gersten type resolutions in K-theory and algebraic geometry. This volume will be important both for researchers who want access to details of recent development in K-theory and also to graduate students and researchers seeking good advanced exposition.
