Infinite Groups And Group Rings - Proceedings Of The Ams Special Session


Book Description

This proceedings volume consists of contributed papers which deal with diverse topics ranging from logical questions to geometric methods and covering both integral group rings and group algebras. Some papers are research announcements, or of a descriptive nature, while others are research papers.




Combinatorial Group Theory


Book Description

Eighteen papers presented during a special AMS session designed to draw together researchers in various areas of infinite group theory, especially combinatorial group theory, to share methods and results.




Trends in Ring Theory


Book Description

The Ring Theory Conference, held a the University of Miskolc, Hungary, successfully accomplished its two goals: to reflect contemporary trends in the subject area; and to offer a meeting place for a large number of Eastern European algebraists and their colleagues from around the world. Particular emphasis was placed on recent developments in the following four areas: representation theory, group algebras, PI algebras and general ring theory. This book presents 13 of the invited lectures.







Bibliographic Guide to East Asian Studies 1994


Book Description

An aid for researching non-western cultures, this bibliography covers Japan, China, North and South Korea, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, with approximately 3500 listings from LC MARC tapes and the Oriental Division of the New York Public Library. It includes publications about East Asia; materials published in any of the relevant countries; and publications in the Chinese, Japanese and Korean languages. Listings are transcribed into Anglicized characters. Each entry provides complete bibliographic information, along with the NYPL and/or LC call numbers.




Differential Analysis in Infinite Dimensional Spaces


Book Description

Focuses on developments made in the field of differential analysis in infinite dimensional spaces. This work covers a range of topics including gauge theories, polar subsets, approximation theory, group analysis of partial differential equations, inequalities and actions on infinite groups.







Combinatorial Group Theory, Discrete Groups, and Number Theory


Book Description

This volume consists of contributions by participants and speakers at two conferences. The first was entitled Combinatorial Group Theory, Discrete Groups and Number Theory and was held at Fairfield University, December 8-9, 2004. It was in honor of Professor Gerhard Rosenberger's sixtieth birthday. The second was the AMS Special Session on Infinite Group Theory held at Bard College, October 8-9, 2005. The papers in this volume provide a very interesting mix of combinatorial group theory, discrete group theory and ring theory as well as contributions to noncommutative algebraic cryptography.

Invariant Theory


Book Description

This volume contains the proceedings of the AMS Special Session on Invariant Theory, held in Denton, Texas in the fall of 1986; also included are several invited papers in this area. The purpose of the conference was to exchange ideas on recent developments in algebraic group actions on algebraic varieties. The papers fall into three main categories: actions of linear algebraic groups; flag manifolds and invariant theory; and representation theory and invariant theory. This book is likely to find a wide audience, for invariant theory is connected to a range of mathematical fields, such as algebraic groups, algebraic geometry, commutative algebra, and representation theory.
