Martin Kreuzer Editor & Author

Martin Kreuzer holds the Chair of Symbolic Computation at the University of Passau, Germany. Starting out in Commutative Algebra and Algebraic Geometry, his research interests have developed further into Computer Algebra and its applications, including industrial applications and algebraic cryptography. He is the author or co-author of five monographs on computational algebra, cryptography and logic.
In his spare time, he plays correspondence chess, for which he is an international grandmaster and a severalfold world team champion.

Lorenzo Robbiano is a retired professor at the University of Genova, Italy. He is the co-author (with Martin Kreuzer) of the two books “Computational Commutative Algebra 1” and “Computational Commutative Algebra 2”.

Since 1987 he has been the team leader of the project CoCoA. His research interests have evolved from Algebraic Geometry to Commutative Algebra, and in the last years to Computer Algebra.
