Algebra

Algebra studies mathematical structures such as groups, rings, fields, and vector spaces. It generalizes arithmetic and provides the language for modern mathematics.

Key Topics

  • Linear Algebra — vectors, matrices, linear transformations, eigenvalues
  • Group Theory — groups, subgroups, homomorphisms, symmetry
  • Ring Theory — rings, ideals, polynomial rings
  • Field Theory — fields, extensions, Galois theory
  • Vector Spaces — bases, dimension, inner product spaces
  • Matrix Decompositions — LU, QR, SVD, eigendecomposition
  • Systems of Equations — Gaussian elimination, rank, nullity
  • Abstract Algebra Applications — coding theory, cryptography
