Recent Progress in Algebra: An International Conference on Recent Progress in Algebra, August 11-15, 1997, Kaist, Taejon, South Korea, Vol. 224

From Book News, Inc.
Held at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), the conference during August 11-15, 1997, focused on progress in central topics in algebra, combinatorics, algebraic geometry, and number theory. A sampling of the 14 titles includes: Okubo algebra and twisted polynomials, counting jump optimal linear extensions of some posets, the irreducible representations of categories, graded simple Jordan algebras and superalgebras, Drinfeld-Anderson motives and multicomponent KP hierarchy, Weil classes and Rosati involutions on complex abelian varieties, and some open problems related to the restricted Burnside problem.

Book Description
This volume presents the proceedings of the international conference on "Recent Progress in Algebra" that was held at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) and Korea Institute for Advanced Study (KIAS). It brought together experts in the field to discuss progress in algebra, combinatorics, algebraic geometry and number theory. This book contains selected papers contributed by conference participants. The papers cover a wide range of topics and reflect the current state of research in modern algebra.
