Abdenacer Makhlouf 
Algebra and Applications 1 
Non-associative Algebras and Categories

This book is part of Algebra and Geometry, a subject within the
SCIENCES collection published by ISTE and Wiley, and the first of three
volumes specifically focusing on algebra and its applications. Algebra
and Applications 1 centers on non-associative algebras and includes an
introduction to derived categories. The chapters are written by
recognized experts in the field, providing insight into new trends, as well
as a comprehensive introduction to the theory.

The book incorporates
self-contained surveys with the main results, applications and
perspectives.
The chapters in this volume cover a wide variety of algebraic structures
and their related topics. Jordan superalgebras, Lie algebras,
composition algebras, graded division algebras, non-associative C*-
algebras, H*-algebras, Krichever-Novikov type algebras, pre Lie algebras
and related structures, geometric structures on 3-Lie algebras and
derived categories are all explored.
Algebra and Applications 1 is of great interest to graduate students and
researchers.

Each chapter combines some of the features of both a
graduate level textbook and of research level surveys.
