Rigorous yet accessible, this resurrected classic in modern algebra is an exposition on the structural complexities of linear associative algebras from one of the twentieth century's most influential algebraic pioneers.

Building a comprehensive foundational text in associative algebra theory, this seminal work innovates with advanced topics such as crossed products, cyclic algebras, the factorization of division algebras, representations, and involution algebras.

Core Features & Technical Benefits

Delivers a comprehensive treatment of linear associative algebras and advanced mathematical structures, making it an essential reference for graduate-level study.
An essential abstract algebra textbook that significantly reduces reliance on classical ideal theory.
Advanced structural decomposition guides readers through a meticulous breakdown of algebraic fundamental topics, including Wedderburn structure theory, commutator subalgebras, automorphisms, splitting fields, and index reduction factors, before advancing into deeper structural analysis.
Pioneering algebraic methodologies reveal with clarity a strong foundation in crossed products, cyclic algebras, and division algebra factorization, key subjects in higher algebra and algebra research.
Connects algebraic representation theory to applications involving Riemann matrices and involutorial simple algebras, expanding its value beyond pure theory.
Showcases A. Adrian Albert’s pioneering methods and historic contributions, offering readers a seminal graduate mathematics reference in linear associative algebra.
Includes a comprehensive bibliography, making this once out-of-print classic an invaluable resource for study, scholarship, and long-term mathematical reference.

Structure of Algebras remains an indispensable resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of associative algebras, algebraic structures, and the evolution of twentieth-century mathematical thought.
