This school consists of four series of lectures on contemporary research topics in Computer Algebra and Computational Commutative Algebra. The lecturers are given by Prof. Martin Kreuzer (University of Passau, Germany), Prof. Lorenzo Robbiano (University of Genoa, Italy), Prof. Jurgen Herzog (University of Duisburg–Essen, Germany), Prof. Takayuki Hibi (Osaka University, Japan). 

 

There are accompanying tutorials on the use of COCOA, a computer algebra system, which specializes in handling ideals and modules over rings of multivariate polynomials.
