    Contemporary Mathematics
    Volume: 1241992; 298 pp
    MSC: Primary 13; 14; 16; 17

    This volume contains the proceedings of a conference in honor of Goro Azumaya's seventieth birhtday, held at Indiana University in Bloomington in May 1990. Professor Azumaya, who has been on the faculty at Indiana University since 1968, has made many important contributions to modern abstract algebra. His introduction and investigation of what have come to be known as Azumaya algebras subsequently stimulated much research on such rings and algebras, as well as applications to geometry and number theory. In addition to honoring Professor Azumaya's contributions, the conference was intended to stimulate interaction among three areas of his research interests: Azumaya algebras, group and Hopf algebra actions, and module theory. Aimed at researchers in algebra, this volume contains contributions by some of the leaders in these areas.
