Abelian Group Theory And Related Topics

Download or read book Abelian Group Theory and Related Topics written by Rüdiger Göbel and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1994 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the proceedings of a conference on abelian groups held in August 1993 at Oberwolfach. The conference brought together forty-seven participants from all over the world and from a range of mathematical areas. Experts from model theory, set theory, noncommutative groups, module theory, and computer science discussed problems in their fields that relate to abelian group theory. This book provides a window on the frontier of this active area of research.

Download or read book Abelian Groups written by László Fuchs and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-12-12 with total page 762 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by one of the subject’s foremost experts, this book focuses on the central developments and modern methods of the advanced theory of abelian groups, while remaining accessible, as an introduction and reference, to the non-specialist. It provides a coherent source for results scattered throughout the research literature with lots of new proofs. The presentation highlights major trends that have radically changed the modern character of the subject, in particular, the use of homological methods in the structure theory of various classes of abelian groups, and the use of advanced set-theoretical methods in the study of un decidability problems. The treatment of the latter trend includes Shelah’s seminal work on the un decidability in ZFC of Whitehead’s Problem; while the treatment of the former trend includes an extensive (but non-exhaustive) study of p-groups, torsion-free groups, mixed groups and important classes of groups arising from ring theory. To prepare the reader to tackle these topics, the book reviews the fundamentals of abelian group theory and provides some background material from category theory, set theory, topology and homological algebra. An abundance of exercises are included to test the reader’s comprehension, and to explore noteworthy extensions and related sidelines of the main topics. A list of open problems and questions, in each chapter, invite the reader to take an active part in the subject’s further development.

Download or read book Abelian Groups and Representations of Finite Partially Ordered Sets written by David Arnold and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-14 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theme of this book is an exposition of connections between representations of finite partially ordered sets and abelian groups. Emphasis is placed throughout on classification, a description of the objects up to isomorphism, and computation of representation type, a measure of when classification is feasible. David M. Arnold is the Ralph and Jean Storm Professor of Mathematics at Baylor University. He is the author of "Finite Rank Torsion Free Abelian Groups and Rings" published in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Mathematics series, a co-editor for two volumes of conference proceedings, and the author of numerous articles in mathematical research journals.

Download or read book Exercises in Abelian Group Theory written by Grigore Calugareanu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-04-30 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book on Abelian Group Theory (or Group Theory) to cover elementary results in Abelian Groups. It contains comprehensive coverage of almost all the topics related to the theory and is designed to be used as a course book for students at both undergraduate and graduate level. The text caters to students of differing capabilities by categorising the exercises in each chapter according to their level of difficulty starting with simple exercises (marked S1, S2 etc), of medium difficulty (M1, M2 etc) and ending with difficult exercises (D1, D2 etc). Solutions for all of the exercises are included. This book should also appeal to experts in the field as an excellent reference to a large number of examples in Group Theory.
