Valued Fields
Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2005; US$ 99.99Absolute values and their completions - such as the p-adic number fields - play an important role in number theory. In valuation theory, the notion of a completion has to be replaced by that of "Henselization". This book develops the theory of valuations as well as of Henselizations. more...
Almost Free Modules
Elsevier Science 2002; US$ 185.00This book provides a comprehensive exposition of the use of set-theoretic methods in abelian group theory, module theory, and homological algebra, including applications to Whitehead's Problem, the structure of Ext and the existence of almost-free modules over non-perfect rings. This second edition is completely revised and udated to include major... more...
Number Fields and Function Fields
Springer 2006; US$ 84.99Ever since the analogy between number fields and function fields was discovered, it has been a source of inspiration for new ideas. This title contains articles which explore various aspects of the parallel worlds of function fields and number fields, ranging from Arakelov geometry to Drinfeld modules, and t-motives. more...
Simple Extensions with the Minimum Degree Relations of Integral Domains
Taylor & Francis 2007; US$ 199.95Covering an understudied aspect of commutative algebra, this work offers a comprehensive treatment of various simple extensions and their properties - particularly of Noetherian integral domains. It presents many arguments that the authors have developed themselves, mainly exploring anti-integral, super-primitive, and ultra-primitive extensions. more...
Syzygies and Hilbert Functions
Taylor & Francis 2007; US$ 199.95Hilbert functions and resolutions are fruitful tools in the fields of algebraic geometry, combinatorics, commutative algebra, and computational algebra. This work explores fresh developments in the field as well as fundamental concepts. It also gives an introduction to multigraded Hilbert functions, mixed multiplicities, and joint reductions. more...
Modules over Discrete Valuation Domains
De Gruyter 2008; US$ 210.00This book provides the first systematic treatment of modules over discrete valuation domains which plays an important role in various areas of algebra, especially in commutative algebra. Many important results representing the state of the art are presented in the text which is supplemented by exercises and interesting open problems. An important contribution... more...
Modules and Comodules
Springer 2008; US$ 159.00The 23 articles in this volume encompass the proceedings of the International Conference on Modules and Comodules held in Porto (Portugal) in 2006 and dedicated to Robert Wisbauer on the occasion of his 65th birthday. These articles reflect Professor Wisbauer's wide interests and give an overview of different fields related to module theory, some... more...
Field Arithmetic
Springer 2008; US$ 179.99Explores Diophantine fields through their absolute Galois groups. This work features the techniques from algebraic geometry, number theory, and profinite groups. It helps graduate students to learn the generalizations of finite field ideas. more...
Difference Algebra
Springer 2008; US$ 99.99Difference algebra grew out of the study of algebraic difference equations with coefficients from functional fields. The first stage of this development of the theory is associated with its founder, J.F. Ritt (1893-1951), and R. Cohn, whose book Difference Algebra (1965) remained the only fundamental monograph on the subject for many years. Nowadays,... more...
Algebras, Rings and Modules
Springer 2007; US$ 99.99Provides both the classical aspects of the theory of groups and their representations as well as a general introduction to the modern theory of representations, including the representations of quivers and finite partially ordered sets. This volume provides the theory of semiprime Noetherian semiperfect and semidistributive rings. more...
