Integer-valued Polynomials Hardback
Part of the Mathematical Surveys and Monographs series
Hardback
Description
Integer-valued polynomials on the ring of integers have been known for a long time and have been used in calculus.
Polya and Ostrowski generalized this notion to rings of integers of number fields.
More generally still, one may consider a domain $D$ and the polynomials (with coefficients in its quotient field) mapping $D$ into itself.
They form a $D$-algebra - that is, a $D$-module with a ring structure.
Appearing in a very natural fashion, this ring possesses quite a rich structure, and the very numerous questions it raises allow a thorough exploration of commutative algebra.
Here is the first book devoted entirely to this topic.
This book features: thorough reviews of many published works; self-contained text with complete proofs; and numerous exercises.
