	13: Commutative rings and algebras
		Of particular interest are several classes of rings of interest in number theory, field theory, algebraic geometry, and related areas; however, other classes of rings arise, and a rich structure theory arises to analyze commutative rings in general, using the concepts of ideals, localizations, and homological algebra.
		In the case of geometric algebras, this is the setting for families of subvarieties, including nested and intersecting ones.
		Typically one classifies problems as Algebraic Geometry when stated in terms of points, hypersurfaces, divisors, and other geometric objects, and as Commutative Algebra when stated in terms of ideals and coordinate rings, although in practice techniques from both areas are used in tandem.

		Commutative algebra comes from several sources: the 19th century theory of equations, number theory, invariant theory and algebraic geometry.
		A famous example of such encoding is the translation of an abstract finite simiplicial complex into an ideal represented by the zeroes of square-free monomials in a set of variables corresponding to the vertices of the simplicial complex.
		Of course, the existing body of work in commutative algebra is not tailored to suit all new demands.

		Commutative Algebra is best understood with knowledge of the geometric ideas that have played a great role in its formation, in short, with a view towards algebraic geometry.
		The author presents a comprehensive view of commutative algebra, from basics, such as localization and primary decomposition, through dimension theory, differentials, homological methods, free resolutions and duality, emphasizing the origins of the ideas and their connections with other parts of mathematics.
		It has seemed to me for a long time that commutative algebra is best practiced with knowledge of the geometric ideas that played a great role in its formation: in short, with a view toward algebraic geometry.

		Commutative algebra emerged during the 19th century at the crossroads of number theory, invariant theory, and algebraic geometry.
		Other significant influences on present day research in commutative algebra come from the pervading use of homological algebra, and from the ever growing demand and sophistication of computational methods.
		Special attention will be paid to presentations of new geometric ideas that could have a potential impact on research in commutative algebra.

		The Magma facility for commutative rings allows the user to define any ring, starting from the ring of integers, by repeatedly applying the four basic constructions: transcendental extension, quotient by an ideal, localization, and completion.
		Rings derived from a polynomial ring will be considered in this section, while fields, their orders and valuation rings will be presented in the following section.
		The fundamental tools on which most machinery for computational (commutative) ring theory is based include factorization of elements in a UFD, the efficient construction of standard bases for ideals and the factorization of ideals.
