Objectives of the Course

In order to study open problems in Algebraic Geometry, commutative rings must be studied. This course aims to introduce the fundamental and general concepts of Commutative Rings.

Course Content

Rings and ıdeals, Localization of rings, Modules, Exact sequences, Prime and Primary ideals, Primary decomposition, Noetherian rings and modules, Artinian rings and modules, Extension of rings, Hilbert Nullstellensats, Dimension Theory.
