Approximations and Endomorphism Algebras of Modules : : Volume 1 – Approximations / Volume 2 – Predictions / / Rüdiger Göbel, Jan Trlifaj.

This second, revised and substantially extended edition of Approximations and Endomorphism Algebras of Modules reflects both the depth and the width of recent developments in the area since the first edition appeared in 2006. The new division of the monograph into two volumes roughly corresponds to...
