Full Description
This contributed volume is a follow-up to the 2013 volume of the same title, published in honor of noted Algebraist David Eisenbud's 65th birthday. It brings together the highest quality expository papers written by leaders and talented junior mathematicians in the field of Commutative Algebra. Contributions cover a very wide range of topics, including core areas in Commutative Algebra and also relations to Algebraic Geometry, Category Theory, Combinatorics, Computational Algebra, Homological Algebra, Hyperplane Arrangements, and Non-commutative Algebra.
The book aims to showcase the area and aid junior mathematicians and researchers who are new to the field in broadening their background and gaining a deeper understanding of the current research in this area. Exciting developments are surveyed and many open problems are discussed with the aspiration to inspire the readers and foster further research.
