Wintersemester 2003/2004
Vorlesungsankündigung
Franz Winkler

Computeralgebra (326.201)
(mit Übungen)
Time: Tue 16.15 - 17.45, Place: T 211
15.30 -16.15 Übungen, Leiter Dr. G. Landsmann, Place: T 211
first lecture: October 7
first exercises: October 14
A theoretical introduction into the area of computer algebra is presented. Some of the main topics will be algorithms for basic algebraic domains (like integers, polynomials, finite fields, algebraic extension fields), computation by homomorphic images using the Chinese remainder algorithm, greatest common divisors of polynomials, factorization of univariate polynomials over finite fields, and the basic theory of Gröbner bases for polynomial ideals. The course will follow the appropriate chapters in
F. Winkler: Polynomial Algorithms in Computer Algebra
Springer-Verlag Wien New York, 1996 (ISBN 3-211-82759-5)
Participants are expected to be acquainted with the basic notions in algebra and algorithm theory. In the exercise session (Übungen) the students will have to solve both theoretical problems and practical problems with the help of some computer algebra system.
Informations to the exercises can be found here.
The final exam will take place on tuesday, january 27 at the usual lecture time and room. Books and notes are allowed.
