Ideals, varieties, and algorithms : an introduction to computational algebraic geometry and commutative algebra / David A. Cox, John Little, Donal O'Shea - Fourth edition - xvi, 646 pages : illustrations ; 25 cm. - Undergraduate texts in mathematics .
Includes bibliographical references (p. 535-539) and index.
Preface -- Notation for Sets and Functions -- 1. Geometry, Algebra, and Algorithms -- 2. Gröbner Bases -- 3. Elimination Theory -- 4. The Algebra-Geometry Dictionary -- 5. Polynomial and Rational Functions on a Variety -- 6. Robotics and Automatic Geometric Theorem Proving -- 7. Invariant Theory of Finite Groups -- 8. Projective Algebraic Geometry -- 9. The Dimension of a Variety -- 10. Additional Gröbner Basis Algorithms -- Appendix A. Some Concepts from Algebra -- Appendix B. Pseudocode -- Appendix C. Computer Algebra Systems -- Appendix D. Independent Projects.
This text covers topics in algebraic geometry and commutative algebra with a strong perspective toward practical and computational aspects. The first four chapters form the core of the book. A comprehensive chart in the Preface illustrates a variety of ways to proceed with the material once these chapters are covered. In addition to the fundamentals of algebraic geometry—the elimination theorem, the extension theorem, the closure theorem and the Nullstellensatz—this new edition incorporates several substantial changes, all of which are listed in the Preface. The largest revision incorporates a new Chapter (ten), which presents some of the essentials of progress made over the last decades in computing Gröbner bases. The book also includes current computer algebra material in Appendix C and updated independent projects (Appendix D).
