In recent years, the discovery of new algorithms for dealing with polynomial equations, coupled with their implementation on fast inexpensive computers, has sparked a minor revolution in the study and practice of algebraic geometry. These algorithmic methods have also given rise to some exciting new applications of algebraic geometry. This book illustrates the many uses of algebraic geometry, highlighting some of the more recent applications of Gr"obner bases and resultants. In order to do this, the authors provide an introduction to some algebraic objects and techniques which are more advanced than one typically encounters in a first course, but nonetheless of great utility. The book is written for nonspecialists and for readers with a diverse range of backgrounds. It assumes knowledge of the material covered in a standard undergraduate course in abstract algebra, and it would help to have some previous exposure to Gr"obner bases. The book does not assume the reader is familiar with more advanced concepts such as modules.

Recensione

"Das vorliegende Buch ist exzellent geschrieben. Es enth�lt neben zahlreichen theoretischen auch viele praktische Aufgaben mit Computeralgebrasystemen ( vor allem Macaulay, Maple und Singular). Zusammen mit Cox, Little, O'Shea: Ideals, Varieties, and Algorithms ist es sehr gut geeignet als erste Einf�hrung in die angesprochenen Themenkreise. Dabei k�nnen sehr viele Kapitel des Buchs im Wesentlichen unabh�ngig von den anderen Kapiteln gelesen werden."

Descrizione libreria

The Reader's Corner is such fun,it's too bad you have to buy our books on line. We have eight foot tall outside bookshelves across the entire front of the store. There is a money slot in the door for night sales, which go to support National Public Radio. Inside, which can be too crowded at times, are surprisingly good books, only 1% are ever listed on-line. We also sell records, music cd's, comic books, mags, computer software and games. Best of all is the found art decorating every spare spot. The motto on the front door: NO SHOOTING, NO SMOKING, NO MOONING THE MANAGEMENT.
