Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Algebra of Invariants is a comprehensive book written by John H. Grace that explores the mathematical concept of invariants. Invariants are mathematical objects that remain unchanged under a given transformation. The book is divided into two parts, the first part provides an introduction to the theory of invariants, while the second part delves deeper into the algebraic aspects of the subject.The book starts with an overview of the history of invariants and their relevance in various fields of mathematics, including algebra, geometry, and physics. The author then proceeds to explain the basic concepts of invariants, such as groups, rings, and modules. The first part of the book also covers the theory of linear invariants, which are invariants that can be expressed as linear combinations of a given set of variables.The second part of the book focuses on the algebraic aspects of invariants, including the theory of polynomial invariants and the algebraic theory of invariants. The author provides numerous examples and exercises throughout the book to help readers understand the concepts and apply them to real-world problems.Overall, The Algebra of Invariants is a valuable resource for mathematicians and students interested in the theory of invariants. The book is well-written and provides a thorough introduction to the subject, making it accessible to readers with a basic understanding of algebra and geometry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
