Algebra

Beschreibung

This conversational introduction to abstract algebra takes a modern, rings-first approach. In addition to its unconventional order of classical material, another key feature is the treatment of topics often neglected in undergraduate textbooks, such as modules. More than 400 exercises are included, 150 of which are carefully worked out.

Autor

Paolo Aluffi is Professor of Mathematics at Florida State University. Aluffi earned a Ph.D. from Brown University with a dissertation on the enumerative geometry of plane cubic curves, under the supervision of William Fulton. His research interests are in algebraic geometry, particularly intersection theory and its application to the theory of singularities and connections with theoretical physics. He has authored about 70 research publications and given lectures on his work in 15 countries. Beside Notes from the Underground, he has published a graduate-level textbook in algebra (Algebra: Chapter 0, AMS) and a mathematics book for the general public, in Italian (Fare matematica, Aracne Editrice).
