• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The lectures comprising this volume were delivered by P. E. Conner at the University of Texas at Austin in 1978. The lectures are intended to give mathematicians at the graduate level and beyond some powerful algebraic and number theoretical tools for formulating and solving certain types of classification problems in topology.
