Opis

This book presents algebraic, combinatorial, and computational methods for studying monomial algebras and their ideals, including Stanley–Reisner rings, monomial subrings, Ehrhart rings, and blowup algebras. Along with revising all existing chapters, this edition includes four new chapters that focus on the algebraic properties of blowup algebras in combinatorial optimization problems of clutters and hypergraphs. It also contains two new chapters that explore the algebraic and combinatorial properties of the edge ideal of clutters and hypergraphs.

Recenzje

"… an introduction to algebraic, combinatorial, and computational aspects of monomial ideals. In the second edition, a full revision of all the chapters has been made."
