Abelian Groups, Rings and Modules: Agram 2000 Conference July 9-15, 2000, Perth, Western Australia

Proceedings of the July 2000 conference. The volume begins with a tribute to Professor Lßszl= Fuchs and a review of his recent research. Four surveys present recent results in the following research areas: error correcting codes as ideals in group rings, duality in module categories, automorphism groups of abelian groups, and generalizations of isomorphism in torsion-free abelian groups. The volume also contains 22 research articles connected with the themes of the conference, including aspects of abelian groups and their endomorphism rings, modules over various rings, commutative and non-commutative ring theory, varieties of groups, and topological aspects of algebra.
