Trends in Commutative Algebra
Edited by
Luchezar L. Avramov, Mark Green, Craig Huneke, Karen E. Smith,
and Bernd Sturmfels
This book is based on expository lectures by six internationally known experts
presented at the 2002 MSRI introductory workshop on commutative algebra.
They focus on the interaction of commutative algebra with other areas of
mathematics, including algebraic geometry, group cohomology and
representation theory, and combinatorics, with all necessary background
provided. Short complementary papers describing work at the research
frontier are also included. The unusual scope and format make the
book invaluable reading for graduate students and researchers interested in
commutative algebra and its various uses.
