Principles in Theory of Computation

From Basics to Advanced Operations

Complete guide for deep learning from theory to coding skills with beginner friendly and hands-on demo

As computer software becomes more complex, the question of how its correctness can be assured grows ever more critical. Formal logic embodied in computer programs is an important part of the answer to this problem.

This book is devoted to algebraic-geometric codes - the recently emerged area which combines algebraic geometry and coding theory. Its interdisciplinary nature - which makes it so beautiful - also leads to some difficulties for those who want to master it. We try to help all those coming in touch with this field, from students to specialists. starting from essentially first principles, the text leads the reader to the most recent published and unpublished results. We do not assume any initial knowledge either of coding theory or of algebraic geometry.
