Bøker av Joseph Rotman

This text introduces students to the algebraic concepts of group and rings, providing a comprehensive discussion of theory as well as a significant number of applications for each.

It now begins with a short section on symmetry groups of polygons in the plane, for there is an analogy between polygons and their symmetry groups and polynomials and their Galois groups - an analogy which serves to help readers organise the various field theoretic definitions and constructions.
