In characterizing its properties, von Neumann founded the field of continuous geometry. This book, based on von Neumann's lecture notes, begins with the development of the axioms of continuous geometry, dimension theory, and--for the irreducible case--the function D(a). The properties of regular rings are then discussed, and a variety of results are presented for lattices that are continuous geometries, for which irreducibility is not assumed. For students and researchers interested in ring theory or projective geometries, this book is required reading.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 254mmItem Length: 197mmItem Weight: 425gAuthor: John von NeumannContributor: Israel Halperin (Foreword by)Genre: Science Nature & MathBook Series: Princeton Landmarks in Mathematics and PhysicsRelease Year: 1998 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
