Direct Sum Decompositions of Torsion-Free Finite Rank Groups

by Theodore G. Faticoni

Overview

With plenty of new material not found in other books, Direct Sum Decompositions of Torsion-Free Finite Rank Groups explores advanced topics in direct sum decompositions of abelian groups and their consequences. The book illustrates a new way of studying these groups while still honoring the rich history of unique direct sum decompositions of groups
