Algebra and Geometry. Volume 2. Modules and Algebras

The proposed second volume of the textbook "Algebra and Geometry" is a continuation of the first volume, published in 2004. The book is written to be understandable for students of mathematical and physical specialties at universities, starting from the 2nd year. The content of the volume is predominantly algebraic, and the authors have tried to include mainly those areas of algebra that are useful for applications in analysis, geometry, and mathematical physics. The book can serve as a basis for algebraic lecture courses, be used as a reference guide, as well as for self-education by any reader interested in mathematics and its applications. It contains numerous exercises, a subject index, and a list of literature for further reading. For mathematicians and physicists - students, graduate students, teachers, and researchers.
