Book DetailsContemporary MathematicsVolume: 264; 2000; 305 ppMSC: Primary 05; 08; 12; 13; 14; 17; 20; 26; 68; 94
This volume presents articles based on the talks at the International Conference on Combinatorial and Computational Algebra held at the University of Hong Kong (China). The conference was part of the Algebra Program at the Institute of Mathematical Research and the Mathematics Department at the University of Hong Kong. Topics include recent developments in the following areas: combinatorial and computational aspects of group theory, combinatorial and computational aspects of associative and nonassociative algebras, automorphisms of polynomial algebras and the Jacobian conjecture, and combinatorics and coding theory.
This volume can serve as a solid introductory guide for advanced graduate students, as well as a rich and up-to-date reference source for contemporary researchers in the field.
ReadershipGraduate students and research mathematicians interested in algebra and combinatorics.
