Elementary Theory Of Equations (1914)

Elementary Theory of Equations is a mathematical textbook written by Leonard Eugene Dickson in 1914. The book provides an introduction to the theory of equations, covering topics such as polynomial equations, roots of equations, and the fundamental theorem of algebra. It is written in a clear and concise manner, making it accessible to students with a basic understanding of algebra. The book is divided into three parts, with each part building upon the concepts introduced in the previous section. Part one covers the basic theory of equations, including the properties of polynomials and the methods for finding roots. Part two delves deeper into the subject, exploring topics such as the Galois theory of equations and the theory of symmetric functions. Part three focuses on the applications of the theory of equations, including the solution of equations in geometry and the theory of linear equations. Throughout the book, Dickson provides numerous examples and exercises to help students develop their understanding of the subject matter. Overall, Elementary Theory of Equations is a classic mathematical text that remains relevant to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
