Editorial Review Product Description A Quick Introduction to Algebra The first three chapters of the book show how functional composition, cycle notation for permutations, and matrix notation for linear functions provide techniques for practical computation. The author also uses equivalence relations to introduce rational numbers and modular arithmetic as well as to present the first isomorphism theorem at the set level. The Basics of Abstract Algebra for a First-Semester Course Subsequent chapters cover orthogonal groups, stochastic matrices, Lagrange’s theorem, and groups of units of monoids. The text also deals with homomorphisms, which lead to Cayley’s theorem of reducing abstract groups to concrete groups of permutations. It then explores rings, integral domains, and fields. Advanced Topics for a Second-Semester Course The final, mostly self-contained chapters delve deeper into the theory of rings, fields, and groups. They discuss modules (such as vector spaces and abelian groups), group theory, and quasigroups. Customer Reviews (1)

Editorial Review Product Description The Third Edition of Introduction to Abstract Algebra continues to provide an accessible introduction to the basic structures of abstract algebra: groups, rings, and fields.The text's unique approach helps readers advance to abstract theory by presenting concrete examples of induction, number theory, integers modulo n, and permutations before the abstract structures are defined. Readers can immediately begin to perform computations using abstract concepts that are developed in greater detail later in the text. As in the previous editions, the Third Edition offers many special features to help readers learn and apply their developing knowledge of abstract algebra: This Third Edition includes thoroughly revised chapters and much new material, including new sections covering free, semisimple, and projective modules; modules over principal ideal domains; as well as semidirect products and the Wedderburn-Artin theorem. Two new appendices have been added on Zorn's lemma and the proof of the recursion theorem. Numerous worked examples, exercises, and real-world applications make this text perfect for upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses. Moreover, with this book's self-contained chapters, students can learn at their own pace, and instructors can adapt the text to meet a variety of course objectives. Customer Reviews (3)

Good for self-study
Algebra for advanced beginners What I realy likewith this book is the historical tour of algebra and the brief presentationof many of the worlds famoust mathematicians. I think the simple approachand the historical elements is main reason for still using this book when Iam plying with the math. ... Read more |

Editorial Review Product Description Some remarkable connections between commutative algebra and combinatorics have been discovered in recent years. This book provides an overview of two of the main topics in this area. The first concerns the solutions of linear equations in nonnegative integers. Applications are given to the enumeration of integer stochastic matrices (or magic squares), the volume of polytopes, combinatorial reciprocity theorems, and related results. The second topic deals with the face ring of a simplicial complex, and includes a proof of the Upper Bound Conjecture for Spheres. An introductory chapter giving background information in algebra, combinatorics and topology broadens access to this material for non-specialists. New to this edition is a chapter surveying more recent work related to face rings, focusing on applications to f-vectors. Included in this chapter is an outline of the proof of McMullen's g-conjecture for simplicial polytopes based on toric varieties, as well as a discussion of the face rings of such special classes of simplicial complexes as shellable complexes, matroid complexes, level complexes, doubly Cohen-Macaulay complexes, balanced complexes, order complexes, flag complexes, relative complexes, and complexes with group actions. Also included is information on subcomplexes and subdivisions of simplicial complexes, and an application to spline theory. Customer Reviews (2)

For esoteric minds
an excellent book for a student who will work hard
The Worst Book of my Studies in Mathematics
A clear and well organized book. A coursetaught from this book will, of course, reflect its instructors abilitiesand compatibility with the text.As a book to read yourself this is anoutstanding text.The geometric flavor of the book works extremely wellfor the geometrically inclined.Because of its focus on clear instruction,its weakest role is as a reference book. If they'd only release a secondedition fixing the books typos this would be more solid five star text. [...]

Editorial Review Product Description Authors Anderson and Feil developed A First Course in Abstract Algebra: Rings, Groups and Fields based upon that conviction. The text begins with ring theory, building upon students' familiarity with integers and polynomials. Later, when students have become more experienced, it introduces groups. The last section of the book develops Galois Theory with the goal of showing the impossibility of solving the quintic with radicals. Each section of the book ends with a "Section in a Nutshell" synopsis of important definitions and theorems. Each chapter includes "Quick Exercises" that reinforce the topic addressed and are designed to be worked as the text is read. Problem sets at the end of each chapter begin with "Warm-Up Exercises" that test fundamental comprehension, followed by regular exercises, both computational and "supply the proof" problems. A Hints and Answers section is provided at the end of the book. As stated in the title, this book is designed for a first course--either one or two semesters in abstract algebra. It. requires only a typical calculus sequence as a prerequisite and does not assume any familiarity with linear algebra or complex numbers.---------------------Features---------------------· Provides sufficient material to design a one or two semester course · Builds on students' familiarity with integers and polynomials by studying rings first, then building up to groups · Motivates abstraction using concrete examples · Incorporates many exercises and problem sets throughout the text to provide immediate reinforcement of ideas and includes an unusually compete Hints and Solutions section· Incorporates historical remarks that engage students' interest in the subject· Includes a section on Galois theory---------------------Contents---------------------NUMBERS, POLYNOMIALS, AND FACTORINGThe Natural NumbersThe IntegersModular ArithmeticPolynomials with Rational CoefficientsFactorization of PolynomialsSection I in a Nutshell RINGS, DOMAINS, AND FIELDSRingsSubrings and UnityIntegral Domains and FieldsPolynomials over a FieldSection II in a Nutshell UNIQUE FACTORIZATIONAssociates and IrreduciblesFactorization and IdealsPrincipal Ideal DomainsPrimes and Unique FactorizationPolynomials with Integer CoefficientsEuclidean DomainsSection III in a Nutshell RING HOMOMORPHISMS AND IDEALSRing HomomorphismsThe KernelRings of CosetsThe Isomorphism Theorem for RingsMaximal and Prime IdealsThe Chinese Remainder TheoremSection IV in a Nutshell GROUPSSymmetries of Figures in the PlaneSymmetries of Figures in SpaceAbstract GroupsSubgroupsCyclic GroupsSection V in a Nutshell GROUP HOMOMORPHISMS AND PERMUTATIONSGroup HomomorphismsGroup IsomorphismsPermutations and Cayley's TheoremMore About PermutationsCosets and Lagrange's TheoremGroups of CosetsThe Isomorphism Theorem for GroupsThe Alternating GroupsFundamental Theorem for Finite Abelian GroupsSolvable GroupsSection VI in a Nutshell CONSTRUCTIBILITY PROBLEMSConstructions with Compass and StraightedgeConstructibility and Quadratic Field ExtensionsThe Impossibility of Certain ConstructionsSection VII in a Nutshell VECTOR SPACES AND FIELD EXTENSIONSVector Spaces IVector Spaces IIField Extensions and Kronecker's TheoremAlgebraic Field ExtensionsFinite Extensions and Constructibility RevisitedSection VIII in a Nutshell GALOIS THEORYThe Splitting FieldFinite FieldsGalois GroupsThe Fundamental Theorem of Galois TheorySolving Polynomials by RadicalsSection IX in a Nutshell Hints and SolutionsGuide to NotationIndex |
