(Mostly) Commutative Algebra
Original price was: ₹ 4,754.00.₹ 3,803.00Current price is: ₹ 3,803.00.
This book stems from lectures on commutative algebra for 4th-year university students at two French universities (Paris and Rennes). At that level, students have already followed a basic course in linear algebra and are essentially fluent with the language of vector spaces over fields. The topics introduced include arithmetic of rings, modules, especially principal ideal rings and the classification of modules over such rings, Galois theory, as well as an introduction to more advanced topics such as homological algebra, tensor products, and algebraic concepts involved in algebraic geometry. More than 300 exercises will allow the reader to deepen his understanding of the subject.The book also includes 11 historical vignettes about mathematicians who contributed to commutative algebra.

Algebra for Cryptologists
Original price was: ₹ 6,181.00.₹ 4,944.00Current price is: ₹ 4,944.00.
This textbook provides an introduction to the mathematics on which modern cryptology is based. It covers not only public key cryptography, the glamorous component of modern cryptology, but also pays considerable attention to secret key cryptography, its workhorse in practice.
Modern cryptology has been described as the science of the integrity of information, covering all aspects like confidentiality, authenticity and non-repudiation and also including the protocols required for achieving these aims. In both theory and practice it requires notions and constructions from three major disciplines: computer science, electronic engineering and mathematics. Within mathematics, group theory, the theory of finite fields, and elementary number theory as well as some topics not normally covered in courses in algebra, such as the theory of Boolean functions and Shannon theory, are involved.
Although essentially self-contained, a degree of mathematical maturity on the part of the reader is assumed, corresponding to his or her background in computer science or engineering. Algebra for Cryptologists is a textbook for an introductory course in cryptography or an upper undergraduate course in algebra, or for self-study in preparation for postgraduate study in cryptology.

Groups and Symmetries
Original price was: ₹ 4,279.00.₹ 3,423.00Current price is: ₹ 3,423.00.
Groups and Symmetries: From Finite Groups to Lie Groups presents an introduction to the theory of group representations and its applications in quantum mechanics. Accessible to advanced undergraduates in mathematics and physics as well as beginning graduate students, the text deals with the theory of representations of finite groups, compact groups, linear Lie groups and their Lie algebras, concisely and in one volume. Prerequisites include calculus and linear algebra.
This new edition contains an additional chapter that deals with Clifford algebras, spin groups, and the theory of spinors, as well as new sections entitled “Topics in history” comprising notes on the history of the material treated within each chapter. (Taken together, they constitute an account of the development of the theory of groups from its inception in the 18th century to the mid-20th.)
References for additional resources and further study are provided in each chapter. All chapters end with exercises of varying degree of difficulty, some of which introduce new definitions and results. The text concludes with a collection of problems with complete solutions making it ideal for both course work and independent study. Key Topics include:Brisk review of the basic definitions of group theory, with examplesRepresentation theory of finite groups: character theoryRepresentations of compact groups using the Haar measureLie algebras and linear Lie groupsDetailed study of SO(3) and SU(2), and their representationsSpherical harmonicsRepresentations of SU(3), roots and weights, with quark theory as a consequence of the mathematical properties of this symmetry groupSpin groups and spinors

Introduction to Soergel Bimodules
Original price was: ₹ 14,264.00.₹ 11,411.00Current price is: ₹ 11,411.00.
This book provides a comprehensive introduction to Soergel bimodules. First introduced by Wolfgang Soergel in the early 1990s, they have since become a powerful tool in geometric representation theory. On the one hand, these bimodules are fairly elementary objects and explicit calculations are possible. On the other, they have deep connections to Lie theory and geometry. Taking these two aspects together, they offer a wonderful primer on geometric representation theory. In this book the reader is introduced to the theory through a series of lectures, which range from the basics, all the way to the latest frontiers of research.This book serves both as an introduction and as a reference guide to the theory of Soergel bimodules. Thus it is intended for anyone who wants to learn about this exciting field, from graduate students to experienced researchers.

Selected Exercises in Algebra
Original price was: ₹ 4,754.00.₹ 3,803.00Current price is: ₹ 3,803.00.
This book, the second of two volumes, contains approximately 350 exercises in Algebra which have featured exam questions for the Algebraic Structure and Algebra I courses taught by the authors at the University of Pisa. Each exercise is presented together with one or more solutions, carefully written with consistent language and notation. A distinguishing feature of this book is the fact that each exercise is unique and requires some creative thinking to be solved. The themes covered in this volume are: group theory and Sylow theorems, commutative rings with an emphasis on unique factorisation, Gaussian integers, field extensions and Galois theory. The book includes a detailed section recalling relevant theory that can be used as a reference for study and revision. A list of preliminary exercises introduces the main techniques to be applied in solving the proposed exam questions. This volume is aimed at second year students in Mathematics and Computer science.
