Invariant Theory in All Characteristics

This volume includes the proceedings of a workshop on Invariant Theory held at Queen's University (Ontario). The workshop was part of the theme year held under the auspices of the Centre de recherches mathematiques (CRM) in Montreal. The gathering brought together two communities of researchers: those working in characteristic 0 and those working in positive characteristic. The book contains three types of papers: survey articles providing introductions to computational invarianttheory, modular invariant theory of finite groups, and the invariant theory of Lie groups; expository works recounting recent research in these three areas and beyond; and open problems of current interest. The book is suitable for graduate students and researchers working in invarianttheory.

Modular Invariant Theory

This book covers the modular invariant theory of finite groups, the case when the characteristic of the field divides the order of the group, a theory that is more complicated than the study of the classical non-modular case. Largely self-contained, the book develops the theory from its origins up to modern results. It explores many examples, illustrating the theory and its contrast with the better understood non-modular setting. It details techniques for the computation of invariants for many modular representations of finite groups, especially the case of the cyclic group of prime order. It includes detailed examples of many topics as well as a quick survey of the elements of algebraic geometry and commutative algebra as they apply to invariant theory. The book is aimed at both graduate students and researchers—an introduction to many important topics in modern algebra within a concrete setting for the former, an exploration of a fascinating subfield of algebraic geometry for the latter.

Error-Correcting Codes, Finite Geometries and Cryptography

This interdisciplinary volume contains papers from both a conference and special session on Error-Control Codes, Information Theory and Applied Cryptography. The conference was held at the Fields Institute in Toronto, On, Canada from December 5-6, 2007, and the special session was held at the Canadian Mathematical Society's winter meeting in London, ON, Canada from December 8-10, 2007. The volume features cutting-edge theoretical results on the Reed-Muller and Reed-Solomon codes, classical linear codes, codes from nets and block designs, LDPC codes, perfect quantum and orthogonal codes, iterative decoding, magnetic storage and digital memory devices, and MIMO channels. There are new contribu...

Symmetry and Spaces

This volume includes articles that are a sampling of modern day algebraic geometry with associated group actions from its leading experts. There are three papers examining various aspects of modular invariant theory (Broer, Elmer and Fleischmann, Shank and Wehlau), and seven papers concentrating on characteristic 0 (Brion, Daigle and Freudenberg, Greb and Heinzner, Helminck, Kostant, Kraft and Wallach, Traves).

Computational Invariant Theory

This book, the first volume of a subseries on "Invariant Theory and Algebraic Transformation Groups", provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the algorithmic aspects of invariant theory. Numerous illustrative examples and a careful selection of proofs make the book accessible to non-specialists.

Finite Geometries

When? These are the proceedings of Finite Geometries, the Fourth Isle of Thorns Conference, which took place from Sunday 16 to Friday 21 July, 2000. It was organised by the editors of this volume. The Third Conference in 1990 was published as Advances in Finite Geometries and Designs by Oxford University Press and the Second Conference in 1980 was published as Finite Geometries and Designs by Cambridge University Press. The main speakers were A. R. Calderbank, P. J. Cameron, C. E. Praeger, B. Schmidt, H. Van Maldeghem. There were 64 participants and 42 contributions, all listed at the end of the volume.

Arithmetic, Geometry, Cryptography and Coding Theory 2009

This volume contains the proceedings of the 12th conference on Arithmetic, Geometry, Cryptography and Coding Theory, held in Marseille, France from March 30 to April 3, 2009, as well as the first Geocrypt conference, held in Pointe-a-Pitre, Guadeloupe from April 27 to May 1, 2009, and the European Science Foundation exploratory workshop on Curves, Coding Theory, and Cryptography, held in Marseille, France from March 25 to 29, 2009. The articles contained in this volume come from three related symposia organized by the group Arithmetique et Theorie de l'Information in Marseille. The topics cover arithmetic properties of curves and higher dimensional varieties with applications to codes and cryptography.
