THE SELECTED WORKS OF J. FRANK ADAMS, VOLUMES I AND II
Adams, J.F.
Published by Cambridge : University Press, 1992
Hardcover. Condition: Volume I sealed in shrink with small ink blot pictured, Volume II Very Good with light foxing and ink blot, slight dents to boards as pictured.
J. Frank Adams was one of the world's leading topologists. He solved a number of celebrated problems in algebraic topology, a subject in which he initiated many of the most active areas of research. This selection, in two volumes, brings together all his major research contributions. They are organized by subject matter rather than in strict chronological order. The first volume contains papers on the cobar construction, the Adams spectral sequence, higher order cohomology operations, and the Hopf invariant one problem, applications of K-theory, generalized homology and cohomology theories. The second volume is mainly concerned with Adams' contributions to characteristic classes and calculations in K-theory, modules over the Steenrod algebra and their Ext groups, finite H-spaces and compact Lie groups, and maps between classifying spaces and compact groups.
First edition.
