Excerpt from Introduction to the Theory of Algebraic Equations
But, of all the sources, the lectures and publications of Professor Bolza have been of the greatest aid to the author. In particular, the examples 65) of the group of an equation have been borrowed with his permission from his lectures.
The present elementary presentation of the theory is the out come Oi lectures delivered by the author in 1897 at the University of California, in 1899 at the University of Texas, and twice in 1902 at the University of Chicago.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book unveils the history of solving general polynomial equations of degrees up to four. It begins with the Lagrange-Cauchy-Abel Theory of General Algebraic Equations. Then Galois' theory of algebraic equations is introduced, which allows the determination of the solvability of an equation by radicals alone. A historical perspective is offered, beginning with Cardano's solution of the cubic in the 16th century to Galois' groundbreaking work in the 19th. The thematic depth lies in presenting a comprehensive study of algebraic equations. It includes criteria for algebraic solvability, metacyclic equations, Galoisian equations, and more. The book's insights are significant, giving readers a deep understanding of the evolution of Galois theory and its role in determining the solvability of polynomial equations. The author's clear and accessible writing style makes this book suitable for both students and scholars in mathematics, as well as anyone interested in the captivating history of mathematics. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
