This course is an exercise session for the lecture course "Algebra I (ZUA.A301)". The materials for exercise are chosen from that course.
By the end of this course, students will be able to:
1) Understand the notions of (commutative) rings and modules over rings.
2) Understand tensor products and make use of them correctly.
3) Understand localization and make use of them correctly.
4) Understand the notion of Noethrian and Artinian rings, and make use of fundamental operations for them correctly.
5) Understand the notion of local rings, and make use of fundamental operations for them correctly.
6) Understand homological algebra, and make use of fundamental operations for them correctly.
rings, ideal, residue rings, modules, tensor products, localization, Noetherian rings, Artinian rings, local rings, homological algebra
