Algebraic Geometry IV : Linear Algebraic Groups Invariant Theory
Overview
This volume of the Encyclopaedia contains two contributions on closely related subjects: the theory of linear algebraic groups and invariant theory. The first part is written by T.A. Springer, a well-known expert in the first mentioned field. He presents a comprehensive survey, which contains numerous sketched proofs and he discusses the particular features of algebraic groups over special fields (finite, local, and global). The authors of Part II - E.B.Vinberg and V.L.Popov - are among the most active researchers in invariant theory. The last 20 years have been a period of vigorous development in this field due to the influence of modern methods from algebraic geometry. This book will be very useful as a reference and research guide to graduate students and researchers in mathematics and theoretical physics.
