Book DetailsContemporary MathematicsVolume: 88; 1989; 598 ppMSC: Primary 14; Secondary 00; 20
This volume contains the proceedings of the AMS Special Session on Invariant Theory, held in Denton, Texas in the fall of 1986; also included are several invited papers in this area. The purpose of the conference was to exchange ideas on recent developments in algebraic group actions on algebraic varieties.
The papers fall into three main categories: actions of linear algebraic groups; flag manifolds and invariant theory; and representation theory and invariant theory. This book is likely to find a wide audience, for invariant theory is connected to a range of mathematical fields, such as algebraic groups, algebraic geometry, commutative algebra, and representation theory.
