Algebraic Structures (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

In algebra there are four basic structures: groups, rings, fields and modules. In this book the theory of these basic structures is presented and the laws of composition - the basic operations of algebra - are studied. Essentially, no previous knowledge is required, it is only assumed as background that the reader has learned some linear algebra over the real numbers.Dieses Lehrbuch, verfasst von einem anerkannten amerikanischen Mathematiker, ist eine unkonventionelle Einführung in die Algebra. Es gibt vier grundlegende Strukturen in der Algebra: Gruppen, Ringe, Körper und Moduln. Das Buch behandelt die Theorie dieser Strukturen und beschreibt die Verknüpfungsregeln, die grundlegenden Operationen der Algebra. Die Darstellung ist elementar: es werden nur Kenntnisse der Linearen Algebra vorausgesetzt, weitere Fachkenntnisse sind nicht erforderlich.
