  • The Classification of the Virtually Cyclic Subgroups of the Sphere Braid Groups

    by Daciberg Lima Goncalves, John Guaschi ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This manuscript is devoted to classifying the isomorphism classes of the virtually cyclic subgroups of the braid groups of the 2-sphere. As well as enabling us to understand better the global structure of these groups, it marks an important step in the computation of the K-theory of their group rings. The classification itself is somewhat intricate, due to the rich structure of the finite ... Read more

  • The Lower Algebraic K-Theory of Virtually Cyclic Subgroups of the Braid Groups of the Sphere and of ZB4(S2)

    by John Guaschi, Daniel Juan-Pineda, Silvia Millán López ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This volume deals with the K-theoretical aspects of the group rings of braid groups of the 2-sphere. The lower algebraic K-theory of the finite subgroups of these groups up to eleven strings is computed using a wide variety of tools. Many of the techniques extend to the general case, and the results reveal new K-theoretical phenomena with respect to the previous study of other families of groups. ... Read more

  • Galois' Theory Of Algebraic Equations (Second Edition)

    by Jean-pierre Tignol ...
    The book gives a detailed account of the development of the theory of algebraic equations, from its origins in ancient times to its completion by Galois in the nineteenth century. The appropriate parts of works by Cardano, Lagrange, Vandermonde, Gauss, Abel, and Galois are reviewed and placed in their historical perspective, with the aim of conveying to the reader a sense of the way in which the ...

  • Topological Galois Theory

    Solvability and Unsolvability of Equations in Finite Terms

    by Askold Khovanskii ...
    Translated by Vladlen Timorin, Valentina Kiritchenko, Liudmyla Kadets ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This book provides a detailed and largely self-contained description of various classical and new results on solvability and unsolvability of equations in explicit form. In particular, it offers a complete exposition of the relatively new area of topological Galois theory, initiated by the author. Applications of Galois theory to solvability of algebraic equations by radicals, basics of Picard ... Read more

  • Galois Theory, Coverings, and Riemann Surfaces

    by Askold Khovanskii ...
    Translated by Vladlen Timorin, Valentina Kiritchenko ...
    The first part of this book provides an elementary and self-contained exposition of classical Galois theory and its applications to questions of solvability of algebraic equations in explicit form. The second part describes a surprising analogy between the fundamental theorem of Galois theory and the classification of coverings over a topological space. The third part contains a geometric ...

  • Refinement Monoids, Equidecomposability Types, and Boolean Inverse Semigroups

    by Friedrich Wehrung ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Adopting a new universal algebraic approach, this book explores and consolidates the link between Tarski's classical theory of equidecomposability types monoids, abstract measure theory (in the spirit of Hans Dobbertin's work on monoid-valued measures on Boolean algebras) and the nonstable K-theory of rings. This is done via the study of a monoid invariant, defined on Boolean inverse semigroups, ... Read more

  • Abstract Algebra: Introduction To Groups, Rings And Fields With Applications (Second Edition)

    by Clive Reis, Stuart A Rankin ...
    This second edition covers essentially the same topics as the first. However, the presentation of the material has been extensively revised and improved. In addition, there are two new chapters, one dealing with the fundamental theorem of finitely generated abelian groups and the other a brief introduction to semigroup theory and automata.This book is appropriate for second to fourth year ...

  • Finitely Generated Abelian Groups and Similarity of Matrices over a Field

    by Christopher Norman ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    At first sight, finitely generated abelian groups and canonical forms of matrices appear to have little in common. However, reduction to Smith normal form, named after its originator H.J.S.Smith in 1861, is a matrix version of the Euclidean algorithm and is exactly what the theory requires in both cases. Starting with matrices over the integers, Part 1 of this book provides a measured introduction ... Read more

  • Topics in Physical Mathematics

    by Kishore Marathe ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    As many readers will know, the 20th century was a time when the fields of mathematics and the sciences were seen as two separate entities. Caused by the rapid growth of the physical sciences and an increasing abstraction in mathematical research, each party, physicists and mathematicians alike, suffered a misconception; not only of the opposition’s theoretical underpinning, but of how the two ...

  • Lie Groups, Lie Algebras, and Representations

    An Elementary Introduction

    by Brian Hall ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This textbook treats Lie groups, Lie algebras and their representations in an elementary but fully rigorous fashion requiring minimal prerequisites. In particular, the theory of matrix Lie groups and their Lie algebras is developed using only linear algebra, and more motivation and intuition for proofs is provided than in most classic texts on the subject.In addition to its accessible treatment of ...

  • Finiteness Properties of Arithmetic Groups Acting on Twin Buildings

    by Stefan Witzel ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Providing an accessible approach to a special case of the Rank Theorem, the present text considers the exact finiteness properties of S-arithmetic subgroups of split reductive groups in positive characteristic when S contains only two places. While the proof of the general Rank Theorem uses an involved reduction theory due to Harder, by imposing the restrictions that the group is split and that S ... Read more

  • Clifford Algebras and Lie Theory

    by Eckhard Meinrenken ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This monograph provides an introduction to the theory of Clifford algebras, with an emphasis on its connections with the theory of Lie groups and Lie algebras. The book starts with a detailed presentation of the main results on symmetric bilinear forms and Clifford algebras. It develops the spin groups and the spin representation, culminating in Cartan’s famous triality automorphism for the group ... Read more
