Valery Borisovich Alekseev – Abel's Theorem in Problems and Solutions
This book offers a clear, problem-based approach to understanding algebraic equations of the third and fourth degree with one unknown. Readers will learn how to solve these equations and, crucially, why no general formula in radicals exists for equations of higher degree. Along the way, the text introduces two key areas of modern mathematics: group theory and the theory of functions of a complex variable.
The material is presented as definitions, examples, and a large number of problems, each with hints and solutions. The primary goal is to allow readers to test their own mathematical abilities. The book is designed for a broad audience interested in serious mathematics, including senior high school students, and requires no special prior knowledge. It can also serve as a resource for a mathematics circle. The previous edition was published in 2001. Price: 707.00 RUR.
