Algebra: An Applied Approach, Fifth Edition
by Richard N. Aufmann Joanne S. LockwoodIn the fifth edition of Algebra: Introductory and Intermediate, the focus remains on the Aufmann Interactive Method (AIM), as in the previous editions. Students are encouraged to be active participants in the classroom and in their own studies as they work through the How To examples and the paired Examples and You Try It problems. All lessons, exercise sets, tests, and supplements are organized around a carefully constructed hierarchy of objectives. This "objective-based" approach not only serves the needs of students, in terms of helping them to clearly organize their thoughts around the content, but instructors as well, as they work to design syllabi, lesson plans, and other administrative documents.

Using symbolic notation as a framework, business professionals will come away with a vastly improved skill set.
Algebra: Form and Function (Second Edition)
by Eric Connally Elliot J. Marks Pat Shure Carl Swenson Deborah Hughes-Hallett Philip Cheifetz Ann Davidian Brigitte Lahme Patti Frazer Lock William G. Mccallum David Lovelock Ellen Schmierer Aysegul Sahin Adam H. Spiegler Selin KalaycýoðluAlgebra: Form and Function offers a fresh approach to algebra that focuses on teaching readers how to truly understand the principles, rather than viewing them merely as tools for other forms of mathematics. Meant for a College Algebra course, Algebra: Form and Function is an introduction to one of the fundamental aspects of modern society. Algebraic equations describe the laws of science, the principles of engineering, and the rules of business. The power of algebra lies in the efficient symbolic representation of complex ideas, which also presents the main difficulty in learning it. It is easy to forget the underlying structure of algebra and rely instead on a surface knowledge of algebraic manipulations. Most students rely on surface knowledge of algebraic manipulations without understanding the underlying structure of algebra that allows them to see patterns and apply it to multiple situations: McCallum focuses on the structure from the start.
Algebra: Groups, Rings, and Fields (Textbooks in Mathematics)
by Louis Halle Rowen Uzi VishneAlgebra is a subject we have become acquainted with during most of our mathematical education, often in connection with the solution of equations. Algebra: Groups, Rings, and Fields, Second Edition deals with developments related to their solutions.The principle at the heart of abstract algebra, a subject that enables one to deduce sweeping conclusions from elementary premises, is that the process of abstraction enables us to solve a variety of such problems with economy of effort. This leads to the glorious world of mathematical discovery.This second edition follows the original three-pronged approach: the theory of finite groups, number theory, and Galois’ amazing theory of field extensions tying solvability of equations to group theory.As algebra has branched out in many directions, the authors strive to keep the text manageable while at the same time introducing the student to exciting new paths. In order to support this approach, the authors broadened the first edition, giving monoids a greater role, and relying more on matrices. Hundreds of new exercises were added.A course in abstract algebra, properly presented, could treat mathematics as an art as well as a science. In this exposition, we try to present underlying ideas, as well as the results they yield.

Algebra: Polynomials, Galois Theory and Applications
by Frédéric ButinSuitable for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in mathematics and computer science, this precise, self-contained treatment of Galois theory features detailed proofs and complete solutions to exercises. Originally published in French as Algèbre — Polynômes, théorie de Galois et applications informatiques, this 2017 Dover Aurora edition marks the volume's first English-language publication.The three-part treatment begins by providing the essential introduction to Galois theory. The second part is devoted to the algebraic, normal, and separable Galois extensions that constitute the center of the theory and examines abelian, cyclic, cyclotomic, and radical extensions. This section enables readers to acquire a comprehensive understanding of the Galois group of a polynomial. The third part deals with applications of Galois theory, including excellent discussions of several important real-world applications of these ideas, including cryptography and error-control coding theory. Symbolic computation via the Maple computer algebra system is incorporated throughout the text (though other software of symbolic computation could be used as well), along with a large number of very interesting exercises with full solutions.

Algebraic Analysis of Social Networks: Models, Methods and Applications Using R (Wiley Series in Computational and Quantitative Social Science)
by J. Antonio OstoicPresented in a comprehensive manner, this book provides a comprehensive foundation in algebraic approaches for the analysis of different types of social networks such as multiple, signed, and affiliation networks. The study of such configurations corresponds to the structural analysis within the social sciences, and the methods applied for the analysis are in the areas of abstract algebra, combinatorics, and graph theory. Current research in social networks has moved toward the examination of more realistic but also more complex social relations by which agents or actors are connected in multiple ways. Addressing this trend, this book offers hands-on training of the algebraic procedures presented along with the computer package multiplex, written by the book’s author specifically to perform analyses of multiple social networks. An introductory section on both complex networks and for R will feature, however the subjects themselves correspond to advanced courses on social network analysis with the specialization on algebraic models and methods.
Algebraic Approaches to Nuclear Structure

Algebraic Approaches to Partial Differential Equations (Springer Monographs in Mathematics)
by Xiaoping XuThis book presents the various algebraic techniques for solving partial differential equations to yield exact solutions, techniques developed by the author in recent years and with emphasis on physical equations such as: the Maxwell equations, the Dirac equations, the KdV equation, the KP equation, the nonlinear Schrodinger equation, the Davey and Stewartson equations, the Boussinesq equations in geophysics, the Navier-Stokes equations and the boundary layer problems. In order to solve them, I have employed the grading technique, matrix differential operators, stable-range of nonlinear terms, moving frames, asymmetric assumptions, symmetry transformations, linearization techniques and special functions. The book is self-contained and requires only a minimal understanding of calculus and linear algebra, making it accessible to a broad audience in the fields of mathematics, the sciences and engineering. Readers may find the exact solutions and mathematical skills needed in their own research.

The book includes a comprehensive review of representation systems, of arithmetic circuits implementing basic and more complex operations and of the residue number systems (RNS). It presents a study of basic algebraic circuits such as LFSRs and cellular automata as well as a study of circuits related to Galois fields, including two real cryptographic applications of Galois fields.
Algebraic Coding Theory Over Finite Commutative Rings (SpringerBriefs in Mathematics)
by Steven T. DoughertyThis book provides a self-contained introduction to algebraic coding theory over finite Frobenius rings. It is the first to offer a comprehensive account on the subject. Coding theory has its origins in the engineering problem of effective electronic communication where the alphabet is generally the binary field. Since its inception, it has grown as a branch of mathematics, and has since been expanded to consider any finite field, and later also Frobenius rings, as its alphabet. This book presents a broad view of the subject as a branch of pure mathematics and relates major results to other fields, including combinatorics, number theory and ring theory. Suitable for graduate students, the book will be of interest to anyone working in the field of coding theory, as well as algebraists and number theorists looking to apply coding theory to their own work.
Algebraic Combinatorics (Chapman Hall/crc Mathematics Ser. #6)
by Chris GodsilThis graduate level text is distinguished both by the range of topics and the novelty of the material it treats--more than half of the material in it has previously only appeared in research papers. The first half of this book introduces the characteristic and matchings polynomials of a graph. It is instructive to consider these polynomials together because they have a number of properties in common. The matchings polynomial has links with a number of problems in combinatorial enumeration, particularly some of the current work on the combinatorics of orthogonal polynomials. This connection is discussed at some length, and is also in part the stimulus for the inclusion of chapters on orthogonal polynomials and formal power series. Many of the properties of orthogonal polynomials are derived from properties of characteristic polynomials. The second half of the book introduces the theory of polynomial spaces, which provide easy access to a number of important results in design theory, coding theory and the theory of association schemes. This book should be of interest to second year graduate text/reference in mathematics.
Algebraic Combinatorics and Coinvariant Spaces
by Francois BergeronWritten for graduate students in mathematics or non-specialist mathematicians who wish to learn the basics about some of the most important current research in the field, this book provides an intensive, yet accessible, introduction to the subject of algebraic combinatorics.
