Groups, Matrices, and Vector Spaces
This unique text provides a geometric approach to group theory and linear algebra, bringing to light the interesting ways in which these subjects interact. Requiring few prerequisites beyond understanding the notion of a proof, the text aims to give students a strong foundation in both geometry and algebra. Starting with preliminaries (relations, elementary combinatorics, and induction), the book then proceeds to the core topics: the elements of the theory of groups and fields (Lagrange's Theorem, cosets, the complex numbers and the prime fields), matrix theory and matrix groups, determinants, vector spaces, linear mappings, eigentheory and diagonalization, Jordan decomposition and normal fo...
Proceedings of the 1984 Vancouver Conference in Algebraic Geometry
Covers a cross-section of the developments in modern algebraic geometry. This work covers topics including algebraic groups and representation theory, enumerative geometry, Schubert varieties, rationality, compactifications and surfaces.
Algebraic Quotients. Torus Actions and Cohomology. The Adjoint Representation and the Adjoint Action
This is the second volume of the new subseries "Invariant Theory and Algebraic Transformation Groups". The aim of the survey by A. Bialynicki-Birula is to present the main trends and achievements of research in the theory of quotients by actions of algebraic groups. This theory contains geometric invariant theory with various applications to problems of moduli theory. The contribution by J. Carrell treats the subject of torus actions on algebraic varieties, giving a detailed exposition of many of the cohomological results one obtains from having a torus action with fixed points. Many examples, such as toric varieties and flag varieties, are discussed in detail. W.M. McGovern studies the actions of a semisimple Lie or algebraic group on its Lie algebra via the adjoint action and on itself via conjugation. His contribution focuses primarily on nilpotent orbits that have found the widest application to representation theory in the last thirty-five years.
Manifolds and Lie Groups
This volume is the collection of papers dedicated to Yozo Matsushima on his 60th birthday, which took place on February 11, 1980. A conference in Geometry in honor of Professor Matsushima was held at the University of Notre Dame on May 14 and 15, 1980. Some of the papers in this volume were delivered on this occasion. 0 00 0\ - 15 S. Kobayashi, University 27 R. Ogawa, Loyola 42 P. Ryan, Indiana 1 W. Stoll 2 W.
