Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2017-2018.

Introduction to algebraic geometry and computational algebra. In this course, students learn how to compute a Gröbner basis for polynomials in many variables. Covers the following applications: solving systems of polynomial equations in many variables, solving diophantine equations in many variables, 3-colorable graphs, and integer programming. Such applications arise, for example, in computer science, engineering, economics, and physics.

When Offered Fall (offered alternate years).

Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: linear algebra (MATH 2940, MATH 2210, or MATH 4310). Students will be expected to be comfortable with proofs.
