Introduction to Twisted Commutative Algebras
by Steven V Sam, Andrew Snowden
Publisher: arXiv 2012
Number of pages: 56
Description:
This article is an expository account of the theory of twisted commutative algebras, which simply put, can be thought of as a theory for handling commutative algebras with large groups of linear symmetries. Examples include the coordinate rings of determinantal varieties, Segre-Veronese embeddings, and Grassmannians.

by Winfried Bruns, Udo Vetter - Springer
Determinantal rings and varieties have been a central topic of commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. The book gives a coherent treatment of the structure of determinantal rings. The approach is via the theory of algebras with straightening law.
