Invariant Theory, Paperback / softback Book

Invariant Theory Paperback / softback

Part of the Student Mathematical Library series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book presents the characteristic zero invariant theory of finite groups acting linearly on polynomial algebras.

The author assumes basic knowledge of groups and rings, and introduces more advanced methods from commutative algebra along the way.

The theory is illustrated by numerous examples and applications to physics, engineering, numerical analysis, combinatorics, coding theory, and graph theory.

A wide selection of exercises and suggestions for further reading makes the book appropriate for an advanced undergraduate or first-year graduate level course.
