Since abstract algebra is so important to the study of advanced mathematics, it is critical that students have a firm grasp of its principles and underlying theories before moving on to further study. To accomplish this, they require a concise, accessible, user-friendly textbook that is both challenging and stimulating. A First Graduate Course in Abstract Algebra is just such a textbook. Divided into two sections, this book covers both the standard topics (groups, modules, rings, and vector spaces) associated with abstract algebra and more advanced topics such as Galois fields, noncommutative rings, group extensions, and Abelian groups. The author includes review material where needed instead of in a single chapter, giving convenient access with minimal page turning. He also provides ample examples, exercises, and problem sets to reinforce the material. This book illustrates the theory of finitely generated modules over principal ideal domains, discusses tensor products, and demonstrates the development of determinants. It also covers Sylow theory and Jordan canonical form. A First Graduate Course in Abstract Algebra is ideal for a two-semester course, providing enough examples, problems, and exercises for a deep understanding. Each of the final three chapters is logically independent and can be covered in any order, perfect for a customized syllabus.
"Presents the structure of algebras appearing in representation theory of groups and algebras with general ring theoretic methods related to representation theory. Covers affine algebraic sets and the nullstellensatz, polynomial and rational functions, projective algebraic sets. Groebner basis, dimension of algebraic sets, local theory, curves and elliptic curves, and more."

Employing a closed set-theoretic foundation for interval
computations, Global Optimization Using Interval Analysis
simplifies algorithm construction and increases generality of
interval arithmetic. This Second Edition contains an up-to-date
discussion of interval methods for solving systems of nonlinear
equations and global optimization problems. It expands and improves
various aspects of its forerunner and features significant new
discussions, such as those on the use of consistency methods to
enhance algorithm performance. Provided algorithms are guaranteed
to find and bound all solutions to these problems despite bounded
errors in data, in approximations, and from use of rounded
arithmetic.

The text contains examples and exercises throughout, and provides proofs for most results.
This book presents functional analysis over arbitrary valued fields and investigates normed spaces and algebras over fields with valuation, with attention given to the case when the norm and the valuation are nonarchimedean. It considers vector spaces over fields with nonarchimedean valuation.
In one exceptional volume, Abstract Algebra covers subject matter
typically taught over the course of two or three years and offers a
self-contained presentation, detailed definitions, and excellent
chapter-matched exercises to smooth the trajectory of learning
algebra from zero to one. Field-tested through advance use in the
ERASMUS educational project in Europe, this ambitious,
comprehensive book includes an original treatment of representation
of finite groups that avoids the use of semisimple ring theory and
explains sets, maps, posets, lattices, and other essentials of the
algebraic language; Peano's axioms and cardinality; groupoids,
semigroups, monoids, groups; and normal subgroups.

Based largely on state space models, this text/reference utilizes fundamental linear algebra and operator techniques to develop classical and modern results in linear systems analysis and control design. It presents stability and performance results for linear systems, provides a geometric perspective on controllability and observability, and develops state space realizations of transfer functions. It also studies stabilizability and detectability, constructs state feedback controllers and asymptotic state estimators, covers the linear quadratic regulator problem in detail, introduces H-infinity control, and presents results on Hamiltonian matrices and Riccati equations.
Integrates fundamental techniques from algebraic geometry, localization theory and ring theory, and demonstrates how each topic is enhanced by interaction with others, providing new results within a common framework. Technical conclusions are presented and illustrated with concrete examples.
