Opis

Algebraic groups play much the same role for algebraists as Lie groups play for analysts. This book is the first comprehensive introduction to the theory of algebraic group schemes over fields that includes the structure theory of semisimple algebraic groups, and is written in the language of modern algebraic geometry.

Recenzje

'The author invests quite a lot to make difficult things understandable, and as a result, it is a real pleasure to read the book. All in all, with no doubt, Milne's new book will remain for decades an indispensable source for everybody interested in algebraic groups.' Boris È. Kunyavskiĭ, MathSciNet
