Galois’ Dream: Group Theory and Differential Equations: Group Theory and Differential Equations

by Michio Kuga (Author), Motohico Mulase (Translator), Susan Addington (Translator)

Synopsis

First year, undergraduate, mathematics students in Japan have for many years had the opportunity of a unique experience---an introduction, at an elementary level, to some very advanced ideas in mathematics from one of the leading mathematicians of the world. English reading students now have the opportunity to enjoy this lively presentation, from elementary ideas to cartoons to funny examples, and to follow the mind of an imaginative and creative mathematician into a world of enduring mathematical creations.

Media Reviews

Galois' theory of equations remains the standard culmination of advanced undergraduate algebra courses...and Kuga makes this the basis for an idiosyncratic geometric exposition of Galois theory... There is nothing like this book in the literature. Highly recommended.
