1	Ideals, Varieties, and Algorithms: An Introduction to Computational Algebraic Geometry and Commutative Algebra more books like this by David A Cox, PH.D. add to wishlist Algebraic Geometry is the study of systems of polynomial equations in one or more variables, asking such questions as: does the system have finitely many solutions, and if so how can one find them? And if there are infinitely many solutions, how can they be described and manipulated? The solutions of a system of polynomial equations form a ... see all copies from $22.00! new only from $36.00! \| SVS
