Rings, Hopf algebras, and Brauer groups

by Week on Algebra and Algebraic Geometry (4th University of Antwerp and the Free University of Brussels)

Based on papers presented at a recent international conference on algebra and algebraic geometry held jointly in Antwerp and Brussels, Belgium, this state-of-the-art reference presents both survey and research articles featuring new results from the intersection of algebra and geometry. Written by over 40 international experts representing distinguished institutions in 11 countries, Rings, Hopf Algebras, and Brauer Groups furnishes in-depth discussions on Hopf algebras and quantum groups ... Brauer groups ... localization theory ... K-theory ... linear algebra over rings ... category theory ... noncommutative algebraic geometry ... and more. Containing some 900 display equations and over 400 bibliographic citations and illustrations, Rings, Hopf Algebras, and Brauer Groups is a valuable resource for algebraists, number theorists, ring theorists, and graduate-level students in these disciplines.
