Abstract Algebra (Math 203) I am in Reiss 258. See below for office hours on May 9 and May 10. For background and grading info see course mechanics The text is "Contemporary Abstract Algebra" by J. Gallian, 5th edition. Back to the classroom page May 23, 2006 Here's the final fun final . And here is the key for the final Everyone is expected to attend class regularly. For previous problems and some solutions, go to the old homework page. The final will be held on Thurs. May 11, from 12:30 to 2:30 pm in Reiss 264. I'll have office hours on Tues. May 9 from 2:30 to 4:30 and on May 10 from 4 to 6 pm. Note that as I told you in e-mail, there are copies of some useful preparatory material (on lattices) on top of the file cabinet just outside my office - Reiss 258. Recall that a poset (P, >=) is a nonempty set P and a relation >= on P which is P_1: anti-symmetric (a >= b and b >= a is equivalent to a = b) and P_2: transitive. A poset is a latice provided that for every two elements in the poset, there is a greatest lower bound and a least upper bound - i.e., for all a,b in P, if there exists g in P with g

Home Back to disciplines Request exam/desk copy Purchase ... Checkout Abstract Algebra A First Undergraduate Course, Fifth Edition Abraham P. Hillman and Gerald L. Alexanderson The authors have used forty years of classroom experience to design a text that serves as a superb introduction to abstract algebra. All students, even those with no previous knowledge of abstract or linear algebra, will benefit from the Fifth Edition’s organization and selection of topics. Outstanding features include: (1) builds abstraction on a solid foundation of concrete examples; (2) develops concepts gradually but allows for more rapid progress as students’ mathematical maturity increases; (3) offers unparalleled problem sets; and (4) foreshadows important topics and then clearly presents and applies them to facilitate retention, not mere exposure. The historical and biographical notes on major contributors to the development of algebra show that mathematics continues to be created by real people. The preface shows how to use the text’s flexibility to achieve any of several goals. Beachy-Blair, Abstract Algebra, 3/E

24. The Mother Of Abstract Algebra (Emmy Noether) The Best of mathNEWS The Mother of abstract algebra (Emmy Noether) http://www.mathnews.uwaterloo.ca/BestOf/WomenInMath6906.html

The Mother of Abstract Algebra Of all of the women mathematicians, Emmy Noether is generally the best known. Often described as a loving, intelligent woman, she was impressive by many standards. She was faced with gender issues and political tensions in her lifetime, but her passion for mathematics remained strong. Amalie `Emmy' Noether was born in Erlangen Germany on March 23, 1882 and was the eldest of four children. Her father, Max Noether, was a professor of Mathematics at the University of Erlangen. Initially her interests were mainly languages, and upon graduation of high school she became eligible to teach French and English at a school for young girls. However, when she was 18 she became interested in mathematics. She was not allowed to enroll at the University at the time, because she was a woman. She was able to audit classes, and she did so for two years at the Universities of Erlangen and Gottingen. She worked closely with Paul Gordon, a friend at the University. Under his supervision, she wrote her doctoral thesis: On Complete Systems of Invariants for Ternary Biquadratic Forms . In 1907 she was granted a doctorate at Erlangen. After Gordon's retirement, she began to work with the algebraists Ernst Fischer and Erhard Schmidt on the topic of finite relational and integral bases. Around this time she periodically substituted for her father at the University.

Gallian Houghton Mifflin, 1998, 583 pp. "Dear Sir or Madam, will you read my book, it took me years to write, will you take a look?" is a line from the song Paperback Writer. by John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Even though I'm finding (as the years go by) that fewer and fewer of my students know about the Beatles, the above quote in Joseph Gallian's abstract algebra textbook exemplifies this dynamic author's sincere, numerous, and entertaining attempts to make his text enticing and enjoyable for the students (and instructors) to read. My favorite quote in the book is by Henri Poincare: "Mathematicians do not study objects, but relations among objects; they are indifferent to the replacement of objects by others as long as relations do not change. Matter is not important, only form interests them. " I use this quote to help teach the intrinsic abstract nature of algebra.

My Favorite Abstract Algebra Projects I have written a couple of Abstract Algebra projects that have been particularly popular with students. The most recent project guides students through an algebraic formulation of the card game SET. There are many interesting mathematical questions one can ask about this game. The second project uses the software package GAP (Groups, Algorithms, and Programming) to investigate the transformation group of the familiar Rubik's Cube. You can access the two projects below. Product-Free Sets and the Card Game SET Exploring Rubik's Cube with GAP Why are these projects successful? I believe these projects are successful because they illustrate that Abstract Algebra is not just about clever tricks and abstract objects/properties that generalize the integers (as, I fear, too many undergraduates believe.) Rather, Abstract Algebra is a rich set of tools that allow us to define useful frameworks on a wide range of situations, making computation and problem-solving possible - even easy. By applying algebraic tools to familiar games, students see for themselves how useful and concrete Abstract Algebra really is. Do you want to see more of my GAP projects? Click

Abstract Algebra fall 2006 course description fall 2006 syllabus homework guidelines instructions for the TI-83 ... study tips Abstract algebra is the study of operations, their properties, and the structures that support them. The first operation that you ever learned (probably) was addition of natural numbers. Later you included zero and the negative numbers and started solving integer equations. Given x + 7 = 3, what is x ? Abstract algebra asks a higher level question: under what conditions does a solution exist? The first algebraic structure we will study is the group : the simplest setting in which a unique solution to an equation is guaranteed. From such a simple beginning, it is amazing to realize that algebra can address questions in logic, geometry, linear algebra, function theory, differential equations, chemistry, physics, and other fields. A knowledge of group theory can even help you solve the Rubik's Cube ! But that's why it is called abstract algebra. The same logical structure can apply to many different concrete situations. More on this wide area of study can be found in the algebra section of the Mathematical Atlas and by following the many links in Eric Weisstein's excellent article in MathWorld Esc to stop The roots of abstract algebra are found in the late 18th to 19th century, with particular (concrete) investigations into geometry, number theory, and polynomial equations. It was not realized until the second half of the 19th century that several different areas of study all fit under the same umbrella of abstract group theory. The first to take this completely abstract perspective was

About this document ... Preface On one hand this book aims to teach some undergraduate modern algebra with an emphasis on applications. These applications are mostly focused on error-correcting codes, the Rubik's cube and cryptography. Each chapter has exercises in GAP (a free computer algebra system) and MAGMA (a non-commercial but not free computer algebra system). Both have extensive capabilities to do modern algebra. Since many of the applications are oriented to communications, it is natural to use computers to understand these applications. In fact, for coding theory and cryptography, many systems use such large parameters that working practical ``by hand'' is virtually impossible and computers are not just useful but required. Moreover, most chapters end with some ``special projects'', which might be useful for a student class project. On the other hand, it can be used to teach an undergraduate course in error-correcting codes or an upper level course in computer science. The GAP and MAGMA exercises are especially helpful for giving the student a grasp of examples. After such a course, the student should be prepared to move onto a more serious treatment, such as [
