"The Algebraic Theory of Quadratic Forms was developed by the author from two topics courses, offered to graduate students in mathematics at Berkeley. The only prerequisite is general knowledge of algebra. Readers will find a full account of quadratic form theory over arbitrary fields. After covering Witt's theory in one of the initial chapters, the author introduces the techniques of quaternion algebras and of Clifford Algebras. Detailed theories of central simple graded algebras, the Brauer-Wall group and Clifford modules are made available in book form for the first time. Other chapters include systematic treatments of local fields, global fields, leading up to a concise discussion of Pfister forms and the quadratic invariants of fields. The text contains complete proofs as well as 150 problems. Solving these problems provides the reader with opportunities to test understanding of the text and to develop computational and deductive skills." (Verlagstext) Tsit Yuen Lam, auch Tsit-Yuen Lam, (* 6. Februar 1942), ist ein chinesisch-US-amerikanischer Mathematiker, der sich mit Algebra beschäftigt. Lam studierte an der Universität Hongkong (Bachelor 1963) und an der Columbia University, wo er 1967 bei Hyman Bass promoviert wurde (On Grothendieck Groups). Er war danach Instructor an der University of Chicago und machte ab 1968 an der Universität Berkeley Karriere, wo er 1969 Assistant Professor, 1972 Associate Professor und 1976 Professor wurde. Er war dort mehrfach Vize-Direktor der mathematischen Fakultät. 1995 bis 1997 war er Deputy Director des MSRI in Berkeley. Lam beschäftigte sich unter anderem mit Ringtheorie und quadratischen Formen. 1972 bis 1974 war er Sloan Research Fellow und 1981/82 Guggenheim Fellow. 1982 erhielt er den Leroy P. Steele Prize für seine Lehrbücher. Er ist Fellow der American Mathematical Society. (Wikipedia) In englischer Sprache. XI, (I), 344 pages. Groß 8° (152 x 228mm).

Paperback. Condition: New. 2nd ed. 2001. A First Course in Noncommutative Rings, an outgrowth of the author's lectures at the University of California at Berkeley, is intended as a textbook for a one-semester course in basic ring theory. The material covered includes the Wedderburn-Artin theory of semisimple rings, Jacobson's theory of the radical, representation theory of groups and algebras, prime and semiprime rings, local and semilocal rings, perfect and semiperfect rings, etc. By aiming the level of writing at the novice rather than the connoisseur and by stressing th the role of examples and motivation, the author has produced a text that is suitable not only for use in a graduate course, but also for self- study in the subject by interested graduate students. More than 400 exercises testing the understanding of the general theory in the text are included in this new edition.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Textbook writing must be one of the cruelest of self-inflicted tortures. - Carl Faith Math Reviews 54: 5281 So why didn't I heed the warning of a wise colleague, especially one who is a great expert in the subject of modules and rings The answer is simple: I did not learn about it until it was too late! My writing project in ring theory started in 1983 after I taught a year-long course in the subject at Berkeley. My original plan was to write up my lectures and publish them as a graduate text in a couple of years. My hopes of carrying out this plan on schedule were, however, quickly dashed as I began to realize how much material was at hand and how little time I had at my disposal. As the years went by, I added further material to my notes, and used them to teach different versions of the course. Eventually, I came to the realization that writing a single volume would not fully accomplish my original goal of giving a comprehensive treatment of basic ring theory. At the suggestion of Ulrike Schmickler-Hirzebruch, then Mathematics Editor of Springer-Verlag, I completed the first part of my project and published the write up in 1991 as A First Course in Noncommutative Rings, GTM 131, hereafter referred to as First Course (or simply FC).
