Algebra ist einer der klassischen Teilbereiche der Mathematik. Wir vertreten diesen Bereich in Forschung und Lehre und stellen damit die theoretischen Grundlagen zur Verfügung, die Anwendungen in vielen anderen Bereichen der Wissenschaft finden.
Unser Institut deckt mehrere Themen aus der Algebra ab. Ein Schwerpunkt unserer Arbeit ist die Computeralgebra, das heisst die Entwicklung von Algorithmen zur automatischen Lösung algebraischer Probleme. Ein weiterer Arbeitsschwerpunkt ist die Universelle Algebra, wo man sich mit abstrakten Verallgemeinerungen der klassischen algebraischen Strukturen beschäftigt. Ein dritter Schwerpunkt ist schließlich die Theorie der Fastringe, die in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten maßgeblich in Linz entwickelt wurde.

Yurii Zhuchok receives a Scholarship of the Austrian Academy of Sciences
The Joint Excellence in Science and Humanities (JESH) program of the Austrian Academy of Sciences promotes cooperation between researchers from abroad and scholars in Austria. JESH offers an incoming program for researchers from 61 different target countries and aims to significantly reinforce the research landscape in the respective target country.
We are pleased to announce that Prof. Yurii Zhuchok from Ukraine has been awarded a scholarship sponsored by the Austrian Academy of Sciences. With this scholarship, Yurii will be able to continue his research on semigroups, dimonoids and related systems. In particular, his project is aimed at solving such a fundamental problem as the classification of some derivative structures of free digroups up to isomorphism, as well as to study the representations of digroups and the different properties of free digroups. We are grateful to Prof. Guenter Pilz for his dedicated support in setting up this project and we hope for fruitful cooperation in the future between algebraists from Austria and Ukraine.

Krishnendu Bhowmick completed his Ph.D. studies
On October 21st, 2024, Krishnendu Bhowmick successfully defended his PhD-thesis "Convexity, sumsets and discrete geometry".
Prof. Kauers is Distinguished Visiting Professor
As a recognition of his long-term collaboration with Prof. Shaoshi Chen, the Academy of Mathematics and Systems Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has selected Prof. Kauers as distinguished visiting professor of the year 2024.
Along with France, Canada, and Austria, China is one of the leading countries in the area of computer algebra. In particular, there is a large group of excellent computer algebra researchers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing. One of them is Prof. Shaoshi Chen. His interests in creative telescoping and D-finite functions align well with the research area of members of the Institute for Algebra. It is therefore not surprising that an intensive and fruitful exchange between Linz and Beijing has developed over the years. The exchange has led to many joint publications and several coadvised Ph.D. students in the past. As a distinguished visiting professor, Prof. Kauers is spending a part of this summer in Beijing in order to develop this highly productive collaboration further.
