Publisher's Synopsis
The Algebra of Invariants is a book written by John H. Grace that delves into the mathematical concept of invariants in algebra. Invariants are mathematical objects that remain unchanged under certain transformations or operations. The book explores the algebraic structures that arise from the study of invariants and their properties.The book is divided into several chapters, each covering a specific topic related to the algebra of invariants. The first chapter provides an introduction to invariants and their importance in algebraic geometry. The subsequent chapters cover topics such as symmetric functions, polynomial rings, and the theory of invariants for finite groups.The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both students and researchers in the field of algebra. It includes numerous examples and exercises to help readers understand the concepts presented. The Algebra of Invariants is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the study of invariants and their applications in algebraic geometry and related fields.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
