Galois Module Structure
This is the first published graduate course on the Chinburg conjectures, and this book provides the necessary background in algebraic and analytic number theory, cohomology, representation theory, and Hom-descriptions. The computation of Hom-descriptions is facilitated by Snaith's Explicit Brauer Induction technique in representation theory. In this way, illustrative special cases of the main results and new examples of the conjectures are proved and amplified by numerous exercises and research problems.
Groups, Rings and Galois Theory
This book is ideally suited for a two-term undergraduate algebra course culminating in a discussion on Galois theory. It provides an introduction to group theory and ring theory en route. In addition, there is a chapter on groups ? including applications to error-correcting codes and to solving Rubik's cube. The concise style of the book will facilitate student-instructor discussion, as will the selection of exercises with various levels of difficulty. For the second edition, two chapters on modules over principal ideal domains and Dedekind domains have been added, which are suitable for an advanced undergraduate reading course or a first-year graduate course.
Algebraic K-theory
The conference proceedings volume is produced in connection with the second Great Lakes K-theory Conference that was held at The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences in March 1996. The volume is dedicated to the late Bob Thomason, one of the leading research mathematicians specializing in algebraic K-theory. In addition to research papers treated directly in the lectures at the conference, this volume contains the following: i) several timely articles inspired by those lectures (particularly by that of V. Voevodsky), ii) an extensive exposition by Steve Mitchell of Thomason's famous result concerning the relationship between algebraic K-theory and etale cohomology, iii) a definitive exposition by J-L. Colliot-Thelene, R. Hoobler, and B. Kahn (explaining and elaborating upon unpublished work of O. Gabber) of Bloch-Ogus-Gersten type resolutions in K-theory and algebraic geometry. This volume will be important both for researchers who want access to details of recent development in K-theory and also to graduate students and researchers seeking good advanced exposition.
On $K_*(Z/n)$ and $K_*(\mathbf {F}_q[t]/(t^2))$
This collection of papers is unified by the theme of the calculation of the low dimensional K-groups of the integers mod n and the dual numbers over a finite field.
The Second Chinburg Conjecture for Quaternion Fields
The Second Chinburg Conjecture relates the Galois module structure of rings of integers in number fields to the values of the Artin root number on the symplectic representations of the Galois group. This book establishes the Second Chinburg Conjecture for various quaternion fields.
Explicit Brauer Induction
This 1994 book gave, for the first time, an entirely algebraic treatment of the technique of Explicit Brauer Induction.
Topological Methods in Galois Representation Theory
"An advanced monograph on Galois representation theory by one of the world's leading algebraists, this volume is directed at mathematics students who have completed a graduate course in introductory algebraic topology. Topics include Abelian and nonabelian cohomology of groups, characteristic classes of forms and algebras, explicit Brauer induction theory, and much more. 1989 edition"--
Algebraic Cobordism and $K$-Theory
A decomposition is given of the S-type of the classifying spaces of the classical groups. This decomposition is in terms of Thom spaces and by means of it cobordism groups are embedded into the stable homotopy of classifying spaces. This is used to show that each of the classical cobordism theories, and also complex K-theory, is obtainable as a localization of the stable homotopy ring of a classifying space.
