Book Description:
|
The theory of symmetric functions is an old topic in mathematics which is used as an algebraic tool in many classical fields. With $\lambda$-rings, one can regard symmetric functions as operators on polynomials and reduce the theory to just a handful of fundamental formulas. This book aims to describe the technique of $\lambda$-rings.
