Description: Based on the recent John H. Barrett Memorial Lectures and Conference on Commutative Ring Theory held at The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, this outstanding reference presents the latest advances in zero-dimensional commutative rings and commutative algebra - illustrating the research frontier with 52 open problems together with comments on the relevant literature.

Examining wide-ranging developments in commutative ring theory, Zero-Dimensional Commutative Rings covers von Neumann regular rings ... integrality, prime ideals, and chain conditions ... integral domains, integer-valued polynomials, and factorization ... dimension theories, pullbacks, direct limits, and deformations ... Picard groups, Newton polygons, and abelian groups ... and more.
