Opis

This new and much expanded edition of a well-received book remains the only text available on the subject of symmetric functions and Hall polynomials. There are new sections in almost every chapter, and many new examples have been included throughout.

Recenzje

...In addition to providing a self-contained and coherent account of well-known and classical work, there is a great deal which is original. The book is dotted with gems, both old and new...It is a substantial and valuable volume and will be regarded as the authoritative source which has been long awaited in this subject.
