Närmare beskrivning av kursens innehåll (gäller denna kursomgång):
The course will provide introduction to basic concepts of commutative algebra (the basic example is the ring of polynomials). We will start from basic objects like prime ideals and modules (generalizations of vector spaces). The course will be loosely based on a classical book "Introduction to commutative algebra" by Atiyah and Macdonald.
An interested student could take a look at a book under construction (especially first three chapters), as these provide a complementary perspective:

The student should be familiar with definition of a ring, vector space, field, ideal, group.
Närmare information om bedömningsgrunderna och -metoderna och om hur den studerande kan ta del av bedömningen (gäller denna kursomgång):
Each lecture will provide a variety of exercises on many levels of difficulty. Solutions to a number of exercises will be a sufficient condition to pass the course, but not a necessary one. (Other options would be discussions, indicating e.g. how the student tried to solve the exercise and why s/he failed.)
0 : Students not attending the course
1 : Students failing the course
2: Students who submitted at least one exercise every week
3: Students who submitted at least two exercises every week
4: Students who gathered at least 10 points (plus the requirement for 3)
5: Students who gathered at least 30 points (plus the requirement for 3)
Preciserad belastningsberäkning (gäller denna kursomgång):
The time needed for the course will very much depend on student's background.

Tilläggsinformation om kursen (gäller denna kursomgång):
Commutative algebra is the modern language used in algebraic geometry and number theory. I highly recommend this course to anyone who is thinking about possible future academic career.
Personally I can say that the course is based on a similar one I attended as a student myself. I loved that course and promised myself to run a similar one in future. It definitely affected my future career a lot - basically it was one of the main motivations for me to become an algebraic geometer. I hope it could be just as inspiring for you as it was for me!
I can promise that my office will be always open for students and anyone willing to learn more or coming with questions or solutions etc will be most welcome!
