This book is both an easy-to-read textbook for invariant theory and a challenging research monograph that introduces a new approach to the algorithmic side of i
The invariant theory of non-reductive groups has its roots in the 19th century but has seen some very interesting developments in the past twenty years. This bo
This book covers the modular invariant theory of finite groups, the case when the characteristic of the field divides the order of the group, a theory that is m
