Incidence Algebras (Chapman & Hall/crc Pure and Applied Mathematics)

This work covers the maximal and prime ideals of the incidence algebra, derivations and isomorphisms, radicals and additional ring-theoretic properties. Combinatorial discussions include a study of the Mobius function, reduced incidence subalgebras, and the coalgebra approach to incidence algebras.;College or university bookstores may order five or more copies for a special student price, which is available on request from Marcel Dekker.
