This book contains the collected works of A. Adrian Albert, a leading algebraist of the twentieth century. Albert made many important contributions to the theory of the Brauer group and central simple algebras, Riemann matrices, nonassociative algebras, and other topics. Part 1 focuses on associative algebras and Riemann matrices, and Part 2 on nonassociative algebras and miscellany. Because much of Albert's work remains of vital interest in contemporary research, this volume will interest mathematicians in a variety of areas.
