Lecture notes

Read at your risk. I have just compiled classroom discussion

However, there may be infinitely many typos, corrections etc...
I will keep updating these notes from time to time.

Lecture notes will be uploaded here after each lecture.

References

Michael Artin ``Algebra''.

I.N. Herstein ``Topics in algebra'', for group theory problems.

Van der Warden ``Algerba''.

I do not usually follow any of these books for the lectures.

Practice questions and previous exams compiled by Dr. Arijit Ganguly can be found here.
I highly recommend that you solve these questions and if you have any queries and help,
we can discuss during the tutorial sessions.
