Hello Forum: I am posting this for Joachim Neubeuser:
The Book: 'Representations of Groups, A Computational Approach' by Klaus Lux and Herbert Pahlings (Cambridge Studies in Advanced Mathematics 124, Cambridge University Press 2010, x+460 p) provides a joint development of both ordinary and modular representation theory together with the wealth of algorithms and their implementations that are playing such an important role in the recent development of the field. GAP programs are used and documented throughout the book. An important feature is that the book is accompanied by an own website http://www.math.rwth-aachen.de/~RepresentationsOfGroups which i.a. provides errata, solutions for the numerous exercises in the book and additional material. This feature will in particular allow further updating of this important text. This has also been posted to http://www.gap-system.org/Doc/references.html - David Joyner PS: The cambridge link for the book on the page http://www.math.rwth-aachen.de/~RepresentationsOfGroups does not work for me. However, the book is on amazon.com and there you can also find sample pages from inside the book, such as the table of contents. _______________________________________________ Forum mailing list Forum@mail.gap-system.org http://mail.gap-system.org/mailman/listinfo/forum
