Brauer Groups and the Cohomology of Graded Rings

By Caenepeel Copyright 1988

    This book introduces various notions defined in graded terms extending the notions most frequently used as basic ingredients in the theory of Azumaya algebras: separability and Galois extensions of commutative rings, crossed products and Galois cohomology, Picard groups, and the Brauer group.
