Algebra and Algebraic Number Theory

  • Chapter
Mathematics of the 19th Century

Abstract

The 19th century was an age of deep qualitative transformations and, at the same time, of great discoveries in all areas of mathematics, including algebra. The transformation of algebra was fundamental in nature. Between the beginning and the end of the last century, or rather between the beginning of the last century and the twenties of this century, the subject matter and methods of algebra and its place in mathematics changed beyond recognition.
