Groups, Matrices, and Vector Spaces

The final two chapters consist of a more intensive look at group theory, emphasizing orbit stabilizer methods, and an introduction to linear algebraic groups, which enriches the notion of a matrix group. Applications involving symmetry groups, determinants, linear coding theory and cryptography are interwoven throughout.

Ultimele doua capitole constau intr-o privire mai intensa asupra teoriei grupurilor, subliniind metodele de stabilizare a orbitei si o introducere in grupurile algebrice liniare, care imbogateste notiunea de grup matricial. Aplicatiile care implica grupuri de simetrie, factori determinanti, teoria codarii liniare si criptografie sunt impletite pe tot parcursul.
