Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is an introduction to the study of invariant theory, a subject at the intersection of algebra and geometry. It illuminates the foundational principles of invariant theory using clear, comprehensive explanations and practical examples. The author's approach is inductive, leading readers from simple concepts to more complex ones, gradually building their understanding of invariants and covariantsâ"functions with crucial properties that remain unchanged under specific transformations. Initially developed in the mid-19th century, insights from invariant theory have profoundly influenced mathematics and continue to play a significant role in areas such as algebraic geometry, representation theory, and theoretical physics.
