Description for Algebraic Function Fields and Codes
Paperback. This is an expanded edition of a popular textbook that provides a purely algebraic, self-contained and in-depth exposition of the theory of function fields. It contains numerous exercises, some fairly simple, some quite difficult. Series: Graduate Texts in Mathematics. Num Pages: 374 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBF; PBMW; PBW; UGC; UMB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 19. Weight in Grams: 575.
This book links two subjects: algebraic geometry and coding theory. It uses a novel approach based on the theory of algebraic function fields. Coverage includes the Riemann-Rock theorem, zeta functions and Hasse-Weil's theorem as well as Goppa' s algebraic-geometric codes and other traditional codes. It will be useful to researchers in algebraic geometry and coding theory and computer scientists and engineers in information transmission.
